Review for California Dictionary Project, San Francisco, CA, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

I first joined as a Board Fellow 3 years ago in hopes to learn more about the nonprofit sector. The first hand experience I had handing out dictionaries to several schools in Oakland inspired me to continue with the organizations mission - to improve literacy rates. I am now a Board Member and hope to be able to share my positive experience with the community . Since my involvement, I have seen the organization expand its reach to Southern California and truly become a California Dictionary Project. I hope the organization continues to grow so that one day every third grader in CA is able to have a dictionary.

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

the thank you letters I've received from the students and teachers.

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

seek out more volunteers to help us reach more students.
