The Great!
I've personally experienced the results of this organization in...
educating the public about the importance of biodiversity, native plants and habitat restoration.
Ways to make it better...
If I had to make changes to this organization, I would...
work hard on getting funding to allow BTN to do more service learning projects. I think they are very valuable.
More feedback...
What I've enjoyed the most about my experience with this nonprofit is...
the sense of community I feel when I work with other program participants. The sense of accomplishment I get when I spend a few hours working hard to pull weeks. The friends I've made.
The kinds of staff and volunteers that I met were...
from many different walks of life, but united in their goal of improving the environment. They were all ages - from children to retired people. It's nice to unite with others - even those who might be very different from me.
If this organization had 10 million bucks, it could...
help restore a significant portion of Orange County open space, and educate the public about why habitat restoration and conservation is important.
Ways to make it better...
Back to Natives had additional tools and equipment so that the volunteers could be more productive - but we were able to improvise and use our problem solving skills to make things work!
In my opinion, the biggest challenges facing this organization are...
lack of funding.
One thing I'd also say is that...
organizations like this, that bring the community together for a common cause, help improve the environment but also do somethig even more important. They contribute to our sense of place and help us all to respect our community and make our whole world a better place.
