Review for One Heart Source, Los Angeles, CA, USA
Originally, I wasn't sure what to make of my application to One Heart Source. I was looking for an adventure, a chance to grow as an individual, and an opportunity to give back to a community less fortunate than my own. Something about the program resonated with me that I couldn't initially describe. So I took the chance and volunteered in their Cape Town program.
The experience was one of a lifetime. The people I met, the experiences I had, and the community I worked with was phenomenal. The 4 weeks I spent there flew by in an instant, but the lessons I learned there will last for the rest of my life.
Take a chance and volunteer with One Heart Source. You will never realize the impact just a few volunteers can have on the outlook of an entire community. The kids I worked with changed my life forever, and I know the time our program spent with them changed their lives as well.
One Heart Source is also extremely flexible, and offers several programs with varying length to help ensure that anyone who wants to make a difference can apply. Additionally, the program allows for free time outside of the classroom, so that volunteers can immerse themselves in the culture of South Africa as well.
One Heart Source was without a doubt one of the best things I have every done with my time, and I highly encourage anyone interested in helping amazing communities across the world to seriously consider working with this program.
