Review for David William Feeney Fund, West Roxbury, MA, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

I met David Feeney several years ago when he was teaching in the Boston Public Schools. He would come into my store to fax applications to international schools in poor countries for the purpose of obtaining a job so that he could do humanitarian work with those poor in those countries. When we conversed, he would always talk of his dream of helping people in poverty, especially children, and of how he could change their lives for the better if he only had the opportunity to reach them. (He's not a wealthy man.) He recently returned from Mexico and has been non-stop laboring to try and get funds to return in order to get abused children out of a terrible situation and to raise enough money for poor children with leukemia so that they would not die for lack of money. You won't meet many human beings like Dave Feeney in your lifetime. I'm now trying to assist him in his efforts. It's difficult.

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

The smiling faces of the children that Dave works with.

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

Do just what he's doing.

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

The genuine sincerity of his efforts.

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

He works alone right now. He needs money to train more people and acquire a staff.

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

Get children out of poverty and save the lives of kids with severe illnesses and help relieve the boredom of nursing home victims.

Ways to make it better...

I could find donors.

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

lack of money, staff, and publicity.

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

I'd like to see Dave get a lot of donations and maybe even go with him.

When was your last experience with this nonprofit?

2008

Role:  Volunteer & Assist in photos, faxes, donations, and spreading the word about his work.
