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

Rating: 5 stars  

I am continually amazed with Mazon's commitment to its mission and its ability, with its dedicated and nimble staff, to reach as many people as it does. Here's an example: I brought one particularly well done booklet to show my parents, who are part of a small, one temple town in the Pacific Northwest. Not only had my parents received that mailer, but they had already been donating to Mazon for years. I travel light. For me to bring that Mazon piece up to Spokane shows how impressive I found their literature. Indeed, Mazon's mailings are powerfully executed, from the copy to the photo elements. And I feel confident that there is no waste in Mazon – donors know that their money is going toward ending hunger and not toward a bloated, executive-heavy organization.

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

...delightful. Warm. Open to feedback. Ready to volunteer in a multitude of other capacities. Without ego.

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

...with very few roadblocks, feed a lot of deserving people.
