Review for Next Door Solutions to Domestic Violence, San Jose, CA, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

I've been involved with many non-profits through the years. What strikes me most about Next Door is the organization's devotion to their cause - to end domestic violence in the moment and for all time. Having served as a board member for five years, I'm continally amazed at the dedication and selflessness that all members (employees and volunteers) of NextDoor give to the victims of domestic violence. Leading and working for a non-profit presents constant challenges. This organization consistently rises to the challenge to best serve the community. I would encourage any one interested in this cause to learn more about NextDoor. I'm sure glad I did. Chris

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

the South Bay community. It's a critical piece of the social services fabric.

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

struggle. I'm not sure I have the resolve or dedication that NextDoor employees and volunteers exhibit on a daily basis.

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

The people.

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

Selfless. Every person they serve matters.

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

Build a new shelter and expand services.

Ways to make it better...

There was more government funding to support its efforts.

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

Government grants and private funding given the current economic client.

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

Kathleen Krenek has provided great leadership to this organization.

Should this review be counted for a specific campaign?
