Review for Here to Serve Inc., Monrovia, CA, USA
I became involved with Here to Serve as volunteer in 2011 and later joined the Board. From the moment I heard of Katie Quintas' vision for delivering support to persons in medial crisis I was very impressed. Clearly, Katie's own personal experience in dealing with the life-threatening illnesses of both her son, Bryan, and husband, Sil shaped her vision to help others facing the same type of challenge. Underpinning her vision is Katie's compassion and understanding of the challenges any family faces when dealing with the life-threatening illness of a loved one. There is no other organization out there that is doing what Here to Serve does - helping to rally resources around a family during a time of crisis. Our organization provides our families with one place to go to identify a myriad of resources they can use that will help them throughout the crisis - be it galvanizing friends and family to help with daily chores, helping them to identify additional resources to help pay for services not covered by their medical plan, resources for services needed, and more. Let those who have experienced the support provided by Here to Serve speak for themselves. Several of our families have placed comments here and their testimony speaks to the way that Here to Serve has met needs that have helped to sustain them during their family's crisis where no other organization has been able to do the same.
