Review for Insight Housing, Berkeley, CA, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

BFHP does a lot of good for a lot of people and with limited resources. It houses and feeds hundreds of homeless every year, is a good employer and an essential member of the Berkeley community. As an executive director of another local nonprofit, I know how tough it is to provide community services on a shoestring budget -- and BFHP is a model of good management! BFHP is committed to its mission, always looking to improve and expand its services, and knows how to leverage community resources on behalf of its clients.

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

...its good management and leadership, its commitment to the community at large, and its focus on client dignity and independence.

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

...dedicated, concerned, able to understand their clients' needs.

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

...feed and house hundreds more homeless. I have total confidence BFHP could build that kind of capacity well and quickly.
