My Nonprofit Reviews

It's hard to explain the greatness of APOPO in a short blurb but here are the big three reasons why this nonprofit is my favorite:
- You can see where your donations are going and see the work being done in real time. You're not sending your money away hoping there will be some change in 10 years. The change is happening now!
- Animal welfare is a huge priority. APOPO's HeroRATs live a long, healthy and fulfilling life doing actions that come naturally to them through the tried and tested approach of positive reinforcement. Full Cheeks Fridays seem to be testament to that! =)
- Rather than a group of foreigners rushing in to save the people, the people are given the tools, knowledge and training needed to "save themselves". This is so important! Giving the population control over their own future generates a sense of pride and accomplishment that strengthens and builds communities for the better!
