Review for Pajama Program, Inc., New York, NY, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

Pajama Program does good work and does it well. As a volunteer, I've had the opportunity to work with the children, and I've seen how they light up during the story reading as well as when they receive new pajamas. As a general helper, I've worked with the dedicated staff. They are well organized, do an amazing amount with their resources and are great (and a great deal of fun) to work with.

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

seeing how excited and animated the children become during the course of the reading and interaction. They often walk in shy and quiet, but walk out with laughter.

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

raise its profile.
