Review for O'Brien School for the Maasai NFP, Hinsdale, IL, USA
I just returned from my third volunteer trip to the O'Brien School, and if the first two experiences weren't rewarding enough, this last experience was positively exceptional. The engagement of the community around the school is particularly of note, and from what I witnessed this last trip - its at an all time high; and my sense is that the community is only scratching the surface with how this school is embraced and revered. Overall, the emphasis on quality in every respect is what makes this school so special, and that is no easy task in a remote area of Tanzania. In that, the school attracts some of the best teachers in the region. It is churning out remarkable students, who will undoubtedly be great future leaders and super parents. The community has benefited exponentially from this school... it is clearly a great source of pride given the immense contributions of those from miles around.
