The Great!
- I've seen the results of this organization in... The Los Angeles Daily News Hoy!, Los Angeles Times Miramar Flight Jacket Base Newspaper Aztea America News Program, Channel 53
- What I've enjoyed the most about my experience with this nonprofit is... Getting American children to help kids around the world in a tangible way they can relate to..
- The kinds of staff and volunteers that I met were... Young kids, College Students, Professionals, Parents, Corporations
- If this organization had 10 million bucks, it could... Change the World starting with today's youth
Ways to make it better!
- If I ran this organization, I would... Carry the message to the rest of the world
- In my opinion, the biggest challenges facing this organization are... Being percieved as a sports organization when it is really so much more!
- One thing I'd also say is that... Balls without Borders changed my perspective and showed me I can make a healthy difference in a tangible way
