Review from Guidestar
Hello, I have been with this organization for last 12 years. One NPO that really works for the Telugu people with transparency and trust.
I have observed American Progressive Telugu Association have very unique programs helping NextGeneration for assisting education guidance from KG-PG for free, providing scholarships to merit students for financially challenging family background, conducting Mega blood drives, Food drives by helping local community. Providing woman empowerment programs, career guidance free trainings, job assistance etc.
Also providing transparency to all 4000+ members. Got 2020 Guidestar Platinum seal of transparency. APTA stands out as ONE & ONLY organization with two consecutive highest level certifications in community organizations of South Asian descent.
