Review for San Francisco-Marin Food Bank, San Francisco, CA, USA

Rating: 4 stars  

i went here for an evening volunteer event. friends do it more regularly than I. you show up at a set time, and they break you into groups and have you do things like sort cans, sort produce, or pack up food. it was reasonably organized, and reasonably social when you go with friends. i guess I could have used a bit more info on the organization's mission and where everything goes, but they did have a brief intro and tour.

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

the volunteer experience, but it was my only experience

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

helpful and friendly.

When was your last experience with this nonprofit?

2006

Role:  Volunteer & pack food.
 

Review for IMBA, Boulder, CO, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

excellent work to keep trails open to mountain bikers, help maintain them. they also educate mountain bikers on how to ride with minimal damage and maximum consideration, and educate other trail users on how mountain bikers can be trail stewards and care just as much about the environment as other users.

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

many states on epic rides on great trails

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

keep building awareness and have membership cards with any mountain bike purchase

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

open access to well-constructed and maintained trails in scenic places

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

give mountain bikers the same importance as equestrians

Ways to make it better...

if was somehow alerted more often to potential risks in my area

When was your last experience with this nonprofit?

Role:  Donor & donor, ride trails.
