Review for Global Links, Pittsburgh, PA, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

Although many organizations often state how much they need volunteers, my experience in answering the call is often that they are so disorganized that the time I spent trying to volunteer was not at all effective. Not so at Global Links! This is one efficient, organized group of folks that makes great use of every volunteer for every minute that they are there. Their packing system is so streamlined that as an individual or small group we were consistently able to prepare a significant volume of medical supplies in a short time. It was really a good feeling to know we made a difference in the health care of many people and promoted international good will as well as diverted perfectly good equipment from a landfill. And it's fun! What a great bunch of people to work with.

What I've enjoyed the most about my experience with this nonprofit is...

that they made great use of my time and skills.
