My Nonprofit Reviews

As a 5 year board member of Sustainable Cambodia (SC) I was asked by Judy Zone (Youthlinc's Director) 3 years ago to consider our Cambodia projects to be part of YL's international service locations. SC is a very organized NGO with numerous projects ongoing. As a matter of policy SC stays away from youth groups because of the risk of dealing with youth wanting to travel for the primary sake of picture taking & sightseeing. Before making a commitment to YL I went to Asia to witness YL's organization firsthand. I was completely impressed with YL's team leaders and especially the youth. They worked extremely hard in a very uncomfortable sweaty environment. YL has now been to SC's projects in Cambodia for two years with great success. SC will continue to work with YL and Judy Zone in the future. Now as a board member of YL & SC, I've been able to see the ongoing challenges of keeping an effective youth program moving, part of which is to be fiscally sound. I commend all who support YL financially. Countless youth have been fortunate recipients of YL's vision. Judy Zone has been willing to pop her head above the crowd, to raise needed money, not for the need of recognition but for the ultimate sake of developing youth. Not an easy task! The time and effort it takes to run YL is enormous. Someone has to take the leadership and bear the risk. Thank you Judy!
