My Nonprofit Reviews

I, like most adolescents in my peer group, had only a very vague idea of many social problems and knew only what the limited programs in school and the newspaper taught me. YP changed all that. Though I was in the branch concerned with the promotion of the performing arts I also interacted with other branches and learnt about the fields they were working with. My branch was holding workshops related to the field of music awareness in schools throughout NCR. This required tremendous research, organization and finally hours of facilitation practice and training. We extended these workshops to schools in less privileged areas, giving me a chance to get a unique perspective on the limited nature of the extracurricular activities available to them. Beyond that I was fascinated by the work done by the other parts of the organization and was impressed by the managements ability to hold the many different projects together and unite them in a common cause. Over and above all that joining the YP was alot of fun. Pulling of meetings and workshops successfully gave me a huge sense of achievement and accomplishment. Working with many different kinds of people helped me understand different perspectives and backgrounds better and I believe, made me more tolerant and accepting. I am proud to call myself a YP alumni.
