Review for Diabetes Foundation, Mahwah, NJ, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

Volunteering at the DFI has just been an amazing experience. Although being in medical school doesn't allow much time to do any extra-curricular activities, every chance I get to participate, I do! After working with Roberta and Dr. Sokol with medical assistance applications, helping manage health fairs, attending public education meetings, and creating flyers for various fundraising events, I have learned a great deal as well as made many new friends.
The staff at the DFI is amazing- very friendly, very outgoing and very understanding. Even if volunteering two days a week is all you can do, they are willing to take your help!
