Review for MAZON: A Jewish Response to Hunger, Sherman Oaks, CA, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

Despite the small size of the staff, MAZON's engagement with the community is incredible. The donor services department provides a unique, personal experience to every donor. The grants department provides copious amounts of technical support to its grantees. The administrative staff has great commitment to its work (anti-hunger advocacy, rabbi relations, etc.). And of course, there is MAZON's grant-making. The grantees MAZON chooses are invaluable to the communities they serve -- be it New York City or Sun Prairie, Wisconsin or Tel Aviv -- and make great strides in reducing hunger in the US and abroad every day. I loved my time working at MAZON and miss the staff, board, and grantees every day.

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

how much it feels like a family.

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

make a huge impact in some of the more economically challenged cities in the US and abroad.

How frequently have you been involved with the organization?

About once a year
