Review for Asha for Education, Los Angeles, CA, USA
I have been with AfE for about 13 years now, and it has been an amazing experience. This was my first time doing anything related to social work of any sort. I was reluctant to join because my view of any of these orgs was that I would need to ask people for money and I hated that. But it is so much more than that, and there are really so many other things you can do, and feel like you are making a real difference. Volunteering with AfE, I have learnt a great deal - one the one side about education in India, and social conditions etc., and on the other, about myself. I have also grown remarkably as an individual. In fact, you can get the same personal growth as you would in a corporate situation without all the competition and with more satisfaction.

What I've enjoyed the most about my experience with this nonprofit is...
you can get as close to the projects on the ground as you want to, and you can track all the funds collected to exactly how they are being used. In addition, if there is something you care about, you can find projects that work on that, and get involved.
The kinds of staff and volunteers that I met were...
a lot of like minded folks who are all willing to put in their volunteer time for something they care about and are passionate about.
