Review for LightHawk, Telluride, CO, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

I started as a volunteer for LH in 1997, then worked awhile on staff, then on the board, and now back to being a volunteer. The mission is unparalleled in its ability to lend a very powerful leveraging tool to any number of environmental campaigns -- but in addition to the tool, the system of having a program manager work to really focus the assistance of LH to the environmental partner lends a value to their work far beyond "just an airplane flight." this is a highly professional organization that prides itself on figuring out how to make a difference, and whose work is much more broad than the flight itself. They are a powerful planning service, and can give a tremendous ROI for both funders and nonprofit partners. Can't recommend them enough.

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

Wyoming, Idaho, Montana, California, Belize, Honduras, Costa Rica, Panama, Mexico

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

Have more volunteer pilots, more program staff (and more funding!)

When was your last experience with this nonprofit?

2011

Role:  Volunteer & Flew as a volunteer in the Rocky Mountain west and throughout Central America.
