Review for Youthlinc, Salt Lake City, UT, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

When people ask why I would spend money to mentor kids in a far-away place while so much help is needed here, I am proud to explain that at youthlinc we want to foster life-time humanitarians so we have everyone get involved locally to get involved globally. It makes a difference here in America, in country (go team Cambodia!) and in the life of the individual volunteers.

I had a wonderful time working with the people in Cambodia and mentoring the Cambodia Youthlinc team. We always felt safe, ate good food, stayed in a wonderful place, and met so many incredible people.

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

my every day life I have a better attitude of service and awareness of those in need around me. I know I can help them and be a better person everyday.

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

make sure we had enough translators.

Role:  Volunteer & I helped educate nurses at the local medical clinic and supervised health and wellness lessons at the schools. I also help work on construction projects.

I travelled with Youthlinc their 2nd year. It was a wonderful opportunity to take extra time and serve people locally, and then travel internationally to make such a huge difference in their lives and my own.

how I view the world and treat the people in it.

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

being able to become more confident.

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

all dedicated to serve people.

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

change the quality of life for a huge amount of people here in the USA and abroad.
