Review for NECHAMA - Jewish Response to Disaster, Saint Paul, MN, USA
I have volunteered with Nechama twice this year, once in April and once in August. Both times were on Long Island helping Sandy victims. This organization does a great job of giving people back their lives. They also do a fantastic job of taking absolute strangers (people who volunteer) who may or may not know anything about rehabbing and turn them into a cohesive, productive team. I knew nothing when I went, now I can install insulation, hang dry wall, make mud and apply it, sand and paint, and the biggest thrill of all, I used a sawzall. I have met awesome people both staff and volunteers and I had a great time too. I will continue to support this organization. I plan to go back next year....where ever they need me.
More Feedback
If I had to make changes to this organization, I would...
Provide some background knowledge to volunteers before they go into the field. I suggested a measuring for dummies sort of class, because I am just awful at measuring things.
