Review for Safehome, Overland Park, KS, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

As a domestic abuse survivor myself before the days of safe shelters, I selected SAFEHOME because it means so much to me to see how so many women and children are saved by the help they receive from SAFEHOME. I had a safe home to go to, my parents home, but I was really in need of help to restore my self esteem/worth, and went through years of counseling. I selected SAFEHOME to volunteer for when I retired. As a volunteer, I have never experienced such an appreciative staff for volunteer work. I volunteer at the front desk, and every time I'm there several staff members give me a "Thank you for being here." Those words sound so good to me because it makes me feel that I am truly contributing to a huge need in all of our communities. Everyone is very professional, and very friendly. It's one of the best decisions I've ever made to volunteer at SAFEHOME, and I can empathize with the clients that come to SAFEHOME and hope that I'm an inspiration to them.

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

I feel safe volunteering at SAFEHOME. I feel like they've make great changes in the past 8 years since I've volunteered to make us feel even safer at the front desk. So I can't really think of anything I would change at this point.
