Review for Summer Search, San Francisco, CA, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

They were my emotional outlet; I don't like to talk about myself, so it was good to let it all out and grow from feeling like a victim to feeling super empowered.

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

For many of its students Summer Search has encouraged them through high school and become the 1st in their family to go to college.

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

market it even harder and grow faster!

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

Talking to my mentor and becoming good friends with her.

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

devoted, caring, kind, passionate

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

serve hundreds more students and have new offices!

Ways to make it better...

mentors seemed to really real (care about your issues) all the time. They were there 80% of the time. I know it's hard!

In my opinion, the biggest challenges facing this organization are...

how to grow big and keep the quality.

When was your last experience with this nonprofit?

2008

Role:  Client Served & I was a student in the Summer Search Programs.
