Review for Bridges to Understanding, Seattle, WA, USA
I have taken their workshop and volunteered with the organization - every encounter was educational and positive, and it enlarged my sense of community. I am 70 years old, and love the challenge of doing new things, with new technology, and with new people. Not only do they empower youth, they empower elders!
