My Nonprofit Reviews

I have been volunteering with and donating to this great organization since 2006. Since then all 4 of my children have been at least on one trip, several have been multiple times. We have taken spouses, in-laws, grandchildren, friends, and neighbors. No one has ever regretting going on a trip. It truly makes you appreciate your life and puts your problems into perspective. All trips are safe, very well organized, and carefully planned and executed. I am going again in 2024!

I have been involved with Unityinthecommunity as a volunteer. This organization is very well run and always striving to do the best for the refugee community. Utah has so many good people willing to share and this organization does a great job organizing donation drives, finding the refugees most in need and distributing the donations.

I just returned from my 6th Youthlinc trip. It was my 4th trip to Kenya. After a 4 year break, I finally got to go on another trip. I hadn't realized how much i missed doing a service trip. From 2006 until this year Youthlinc has evolved and progressed. This was by far my best trip out of the six trips I have taken. Youthlinc does an amazing job organizing the trips. Every minute is filled with meaningful activities. I took my 17 year old on this trip. It was her first service trip and she was excited but did not know what to expect. Now all she can talk about is doing another trip. She told me that she had not expected to get so involved, love the people she served, and get attached to the children in Kenya. She had a hard time leaving and has a completely different outlook on life. Youthlinc manages to organize trips that not only serve the people in country but also forever touches the volunteers, youth and adult mentors alike. None of us comes away from a trip without realizing how much we as Americans are blessed and how fulfilling sharing ourselves with less fortunate children. We gain invaluable culture awareness, and experience. ever since my first Youthlinc trip, I have had a hard time enjoying regular sight seeing vacations. If service is not part of a vacation it seems we waste our time. I can highly recommend Youthlinc to anyone. If you are looking to serve others, while being part of a well organized trip, then Youthlinc is the charity. I don't know of another charity that stresses service in our home country to qualify for the service trip. Youthlinc strives to create life time humanitarians. It certainly has done that for every one of my family members that have participated.
