Review for Global Links, Pittsburgh, PA, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

Global Links is a pioneer in its approach to both environmental stewardship and development assistance. Every year, the organization makes a measurable, direct and immediate impact in the lives of thousands of our world's poorest - and it does so using materials that would otherwise be thrown away in U.S. landfills. I have worked with few other organizations that have such a profound sense of their responsibility both at home and abroad and such an enduring commitment to protecting both our planet and the people on it.

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

- the number of tons of medical supplies it recovers every year. - the number of people whose lives drastically improve because of Global Links.

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

- the dedication and passion of its staff.

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

- recover even more supplies that are wasted every year in the U.S. - serve hundreds of thousands more.

When was your last experience with this nonprofit?

2009

Role:  Volunteer & I volunteered with Global Links on various projects.
 

Review for Greater Pittsburgh Community Food Bank, Duquesne, PA, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

As a past recruiter of nonprofit internships, I worked with several staff members at the Food Bank in developing position descriptions, outlining expectations and maintaining our partnership. Not only were these staff members some of the most professional and hard-working individuals I have met, but they all shared a deep passion for their mission. Furthermore, the young people we placed at the Food Bank were generously supported throughout their experience. In my opinion, the GPCFB is one of the most effective non-profits in our region.

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

the numbers of people served annually by the Food Bank.

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

meeting the passionate people who work there.

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

professional, committed, inspiring.

When was your last experience with this nonprofit?
