The Women's Resource Center provides financial education to about 4,500 women per year. They also have programs to help teenagers and at-risk girls. They have an impressive volunteer base, a highly professional and dedicated (but small) staff, and they always make their volunteers feel appreciated. They spend their money wisely and are a community model on how a non-profit should be run.
The Great!
I've personally experienced the results of this organization in...
financial education. I hear great stories all the time. They help an under-served population better their lives by understanding how to manage the limited amount of money they have to live on.
Ways to make it better...
If I had to make changes to this organization, I would...
get even more people involved, especially at the Junior Partners level.
MY ROLE:
Volunteer & I am helping revamp the Junior Partners, the young professionals volunteer portion of the organization. .
