Review for Self-Help for the Elderly, San Francisco, CA, USA

Rating: 4 stars  

I have been a board member of Self Help for several years. I have witnessed first hand how the entire organization works together tirelessly for the well being of the elders they serve. The organization has recently expanded its service area to San Jose and will need many volunteers and major sponsors in the San Jose area. Please join us to make a difference in your community. Thanks.

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

delivering the personal care to many elders

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

expand the management team to provide more depth

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

there are many volunteers who believe in the mission of Self Help for the Elderly

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

they are energetic and caring

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

invest in an endowment fund and spend the earnings to subsidize some of the services being provided to the seniors

Ways to make it better...

we can find the resources to help more low income seniors

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

a succession plan of its key managers is needed

One thing I'd also say is that...

continue to do what it is doing

When was your last experience with this nonprofit?

Role:  Board Member & served on the finance committe for several years and assisted in several fundraising events.
