Review for The Project On Government Oversight, Inc., Washington, DC, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

The Project on Government Oversight, Inc. can TRULY help the United States in the future to make sure our government is following our national standards. For example: Reduce global climate change, Avoid economic downturns by making sure the government is monitoring businesses to make sure they are following rules/laws, Preserve our natural environments, Improve public education so that children of all economic classes have an opportunity to be a successful adult, Improve air quality to avoid people from getting asthma and lung disease, Maintain women's right to choose, Make sure all states are following national laws including the separation of Church and State throughout this country (e.g. evolution should be taught in all public schools and if a public school teaches about one religion, they should teach about ALL religions), Legalize Marriage Equity throughout the United States, etc.

Review for FOOD for Lane County, Eugene, OR, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

Food for Lane County truly helps those who lack funds for eating in Lane County, Oregon. In Eugene, many of the road intersections have homeless people with signs requesting help. Food For Lane County offers a free meal location on 8th Ave. across from the WOW Hall. Each year I donate $60 to Food for Lane County through Market of Choice and also donate food through the US Mail system.

Rating: 5 stars  

Oregon is a state with the highest percentage of people who lack finances for eating well. FOOD for Lane County does a remarkable job of helping those who don't have enough money to purchase healthy food for their families. Every month and year I support FOOD for Lane County by donating money at Market of Choice, donating bowls at their yearly fund raiser, and donated food when the post office does a food drive for FOOD for Lane County.

I really appreciate all the work Food For Lane County does for the many families and people in Lane County who are struggling financially. With the economy the way it is right now, there are so many families and people who are having such a difficult time… If Food For Lane County were not doing what it is doing, life would be extraordinarily difficult for so many people in our county.

Rating: 5 stars  

FOOD For Lane County helps so many families in need and I am very proud to be a donor of this nonprofit organization. Each month I donate money when I go through the checkout line at one of our local grocery stores, Market of Choice. I also donate a grocery bag full of food for every postal food drive for FOOD For Lane County. And we often send a donation check to FOOD For Lane County each year.

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

how devoted FOOD For Lane County is to helping people in need, especially with the economic downturn and unemployment rate Oregon has experienced.
