Review for CREW Network Foundation, Lawrence, KS, USA

Rating: 4 stars  

I have been a supporter of CREW Network Foundation as a volunteer, a contributor and a board member. I have given my time and my money because I believe that what the organization is doing to improve (i) awareness of the talent inequities in the commercial real estate industry and (ii) preparedness of women in, and looking to join, the industry is necessary and unequalled. While many firms and individuals in the industry are talking about the issues surrounding gender equality, there are few really putting their time and their money behind the conversation. CREW Network Foundation is doing all of that and more. The only reason why I didn't give the organization 5 stars is that it is limited in its range due to the limitations of funding. I believe that if more funds were available to support the organization's programming it would "far exceed" expectations.

Review for Beyond Hunger, Oak Park, IL, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

I worked at the Food Pantry for a number of years before joining the Board. I agreed to joi the Board because OPRF Food Pantry is not only providing an absolutely needed service in the community, it does it with caring, friendliness and the ability to make each guest comfortable. The expansion of the Client Choice program is an example of how the OPRF Food Pantry team looks to take any stigma out of needing to use the Pantry. Kathy Russell and her team are absolutely the best!

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

helping meet the needs of the community by providing quality food and services.

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

provide it with a larger space so that it can provide more food and meet the growing need.

Role:  Board Member & I volunteered and am now on the Board.
