Review for Ukraine Orphan Outreach, Berthoud, CO, USA
When like-minded individuals get together to change the world, a certain synergy happens. This is exactly what Ukraine Orphan Outreach is all about. This organization is changing the lives of orphans in Ukraine through so many different avenues!
I always vet an organization by their operating budget and reputation. When I first joined UOO as a volunteer, I had only heard great things about them from other volunteers. I heard about their devotion and heart for helping orphans in Ukraine, and then I experienced it myself as I volunteered with summer camps.
After two years of volunteering, I joined as a board member. Why? Because when a group of people who have the same vision and drive get together, great things happen. This organization is all volunteer based - even the board members. We don't get paid to live out our passion of helping orphans. Instead, we give hours and hours and finances into this because we are passionate about the kids we meet. We are passionate about assisting them with their future, to give them a hope when everything looks bleak.
This is what makes UOO such an amazing organization to volunteer with - their heart isn't about building up a giant organization, but instead about funneling as much of their donations and time and energy into the orphan standing in front of them. They love with their whole hearts and their passion shows in how this organization is ran.
