Asha is a great organization. There are no overhead costs, the purpose of the organization is simple, straightforward, and effective, and we work with grass-roots programs that work within the community to bring about change. I am a steward for a project and have had a great experience working with a volunteer in India who is extending micro-finance loans to women in an impoverished area of India. At Asha, we make sure that the projects that receive our funds are legitimate and effective projects that really are seeking to bring education to the many underprivileged children in India. These programs not only provide these children with an education, but empower them with the knowledge and skills to find opportunities and escape poverty.
The Great!
- The kinds of staff and volunteers that I met were... people who were sincerely invested in the cause and very strong in their commitment to the programs.
- If this organization had 10 million bucks, it could... educate millions of children and give them the opportunity to escape poverty.
Ways to make it better!
- In my opinion, the biggest challenges facing this organization are... quick volunteer turnover and lack of structure
