Review for Shirley Ann Sullivan Educational Foundation, WaKeeney, KS, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

SASEF did a really great program for TMMAF this year for kids who survived the war. In a village called Kakata in Liberia they had the kids draw the challenges they faced in day to day life. Because of all the violence in Liberia this workshop was a way to help these kids deal with this issue.

The project was a success and with the help of the Ministry of Gender, Ministry of Education and Save the Children to coordinate the kids, SASEF helped educate more children around the world.

I've personally experienced the results of this organization in...

all aspects of SASEF for many years including serving as Vice President for two terms.

If I had to make changes to this organization, I would...

not make any changes...just continue to watch the good works and support its efforts.

Role:  Board Member & I was not involved with this project due to logistics.

Rating: 5 stars  

I had the honor of being Vice President of the Shirley Ann Educational Foundation for 6 years. This is an outstanding organization that is making a global impact at the ground level to our youth. The programs it has created, implemented or facilitated are creative, solid and worthy of your donations and your time spent volunteering to support them.

I've personally experienced the results of this organization in...

many areas from facilitating a successful youth educational conference in Brazil, fundraising to build schools in Angola, the creation of a music program at a school in Brazil by SASEF's piano donation, teaching middle school students in the US about the Millennium Development Goals, seeing the end results of helping with the creative aspect of other programs and much more.

What I've enjoyed the most about my experience with this nonprofit is...

learning about global philanthropy, working with the youth and seeing first hand the impact that it makes on the children of the world.

The kinds of staff and volunteers that I met were...

an excellent group from all ages, cultures, continents, educational levels and careers with one goal to make SASEF's programs and projects a success!

If this organization had 10 million bucks, it could...

implement the programs and projects that are already established and successful to more youth around the world. From experience working with SASEF as Vice President, I feel very comfortable in saying that the "right thing" would be done with every penny.

How frequently have you been involved with the organization?

About every week
