Review for Operation Understanding DC, Washington, DC, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

OUDC is a watershed experience that leads to social action for most of the participants who are fortunate enough to participate in the program. I know it was for me.

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

The change for good it has spurned in participants and the community as a whole.

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

Get the students out in the community more.

What I've enjoyed the most about my experience with this nonprofit is...

The change for the better it created in my own life and now seeing a new class of students each year experience those same eye opening moments.

The kinds of staff and volunteers that I met were...

All passionate and committed to the organization and the mission.

If this organization had 10 million bucks, it could...

Expand the number of participants and/or increase the scope of the summer trip.

Ways to make it better...

Much more qualified people apply then can participate because of limited resources.

In my opinion, the biggest challenges facing this organization are...

Keeping graduates of the program committed to the program once it is over.

One thing I'd also say is that...

Operation Understanding DC is a leader in the social change that is happening in this country right now.

When was your last experience with this nonprofit?

2008

Role:  Client Served & Member of Class 6, now a donor.
