Review for Isles, Inc., Trenton, NJ, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

Isles is a community development and environmental organization that helps families and neighborhoods achieve health and self-reliance. Isles' array of services and training empowers people to improve their lives, families, communities, and the environment. My family and I have helped and will continue to work on renovating an old textile mill. This will allow Isles to centralize much of their activities. We have attended one of their House and Garden Tours. Isles renovates existing urban homes that are attractive, affordable, energy-efficient, and healthy for the occupants and workers.

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

bringing people together to develop and to realize the benefir to the community as a whole. These goals are realized on a daily basis by seeing the progress in the renovation of Mill One and urban houses, or in the productivity of the community gardens.

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

to see people who really care! It would be such a sad world if people didn't care.
