Review for Aim High, San Francisco, CA, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

As a high school student looking for volunteer work, I had no expectations when I began working with Aim High. But after three summers as a teaching assistant in the program, I have become more and more amazed each year with the incredible boost (educationally, socially, and personally) the program provides to middle school students. It also manages the impossible by acting as a positive program-wide role model to kids who are facing the toughest social environment of their lives. I'm proud to have worked with Aim High, and I have every intention of continuing to work in the program for many years to come.

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

having close friends in high school who had gone through the program, had enjoyed happy, successful high school years, and are either currently or in the near future attending college.

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

dedicated, friendly, responsible, and very happy with the work they were doing.

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

expand to encompass all of california and beyond, providing a great, supportive, free summer program to thousands more struggling middle school students.

How frequently have you been involved with the organization?

About once a year
