I extremely enjoyed working for People Serving People as a development intern. The people within the organization are extremely kind and sociable. I entered the organization with little experience, but felt completely going to others for help and questions. I think the internship program is a very good experience for many students. People Serving People opened my eyes to the non-profit sector and I respect their organization immensely. Thank you!
From the first moment I walked into PSP as a volunteer, I was hooked on that place. I went in with a group of kids who had done a fundraiser for PSP. We were given a tour of the building and all of the facilities, and told of the programs and assistance they offer. That comprehensive tour, along with the ability of the PSP staff member to connect us to the place was what really engaged us and kept us coming back. Since then myself and my family have been back to paint murals, and do other jobs numerous times. PSP has such respect and care for the families who are staying there, and it is clear that providing these things really makes a difference in the lives of the people who temporarily call PSP home. And their programs to train and help employ people coming out of PSP are innovative and vital to those who wish to move past their current state, and into the next part of their life journey...providing a basis for a stable home for their families. I cannot even imagine how many people they have helped! I LOVE PSP, and I feel like there is a light and warmth and and positive spirit that emanates from that building down there on the corner. The city would NOT be the same without it.
