Review for A Room of Her Own Foundation, Placitas, NM, USA

Rating: 4 stars  

I have worked for and made grants to many women's organizations and I believe AROHO is special. I participated in the writing retreat last summer, and found an unusual mix of generosity, a lovely spirit, and high standards.

I've personally experienced the results of this organization in...

taking my writing far more seriously.

If I had to make changes to this organization, I would...

upgrade the website, graphics, and communications but don't lose the authentic touch.

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

that it involves a diverse group of women who are committed to themselves, their writing, and each other.

The kinds of staff and volunteers that I met were...

smart, hard-working, generous, open.

If this organization had 10 million bucks, it could...

give all its members 500 pounds a year and a room of our own.

Ways to make it better...

the retreat had been a bit longer.

In my opinion, the biggest challenges facing this organization are...

sustainability and managing growth without losing intimacy and excellence

One thing I'd also say is that...

AROHO broke through my jadedness.

How frequently have you been involved with the organization?

About every six months

When was your last experience with this nonprofit?

2010

Role:  Professional with expertise in this field & participated in writing retreat and connected with other writers.
