Review for Food Empowerment Project, Cotati, CA, USA
There are a lot of remarkable nonprofits out there. Some help animals (even those raised for food). Some work on issues affecting humans, such as health, workers' rights, or slavery. Still others work to improve the environment. Food Empowerment Project is the only organization I know of that works on all these issues. That this work is done as an all-volunteer nonprofit is simply astounding. I am privileged to help them in any way I can.

Did your volunteer experience have an effect on you? (teaching you a new skill, or introducing new friends, etc.)
Before I volunteered, I thought human slavery was a thing of the past. Through my work at F.E.P., I've learned that slavery is alive and well in the chocolate and other industries.
How did this volunteer experience make you feel?
I feel very valued and appreciated -- more so than I have in any paid job, ever.
