My Nonprofit Reviews

Operation Understanding DC is a program that has truly changed the lives of my two daughters. Although we raised our children to be accepting of people of all racial and ethnic backgrounds, of people who were not as well off as they were, and of those who are physically challenged, OUDC took them so many steps further. It taught them to understand more fully the challenges that African Americans have faced for so long, and in some cases still do, in this country. Even moreso, it gave them the opportunity to develop friendships, and kinships, that will no doubt last a lifetime. It has given them the confidence to go out into the community to facilitate understanding between different racial and ethnic groups. And, it has driven them to grow into other groups that have similar missions. As a result of the profound impact that OUDC has had on my daughters, I have already seen them develop into social leaders in their community and can foresee them doing so much more I could have ever hoped for in fighting discrimination f all kinds, and in fostering respect, understanding and cooperation within their communities. OUDC has come a long way in the fifteen years it has benefitted the DC metropolitan area, and can do so much more as it is able to grow its programs. They have benefitted so much for the wonderful program directors they have had over the years and it would be wonderful to sse the program continue to thrive and grow.
