My Nonprofit Reviews

I have been involved for over a decade with this great organization. A huge benefit to the differently abled in our community!

I am familiar with a number of people who participate in UMAR's various vocational programs, art center, and or live in one of their residential group homes - and they are truly blessed.

I have been familiar with Holy Angels for a number of years.

The work they do serving the differently able is truly amazing.

Through the Knights of Columbus I have volunteered for the past 12 years in various roles to assist this wonderful program.

As it is totally volunteer, fully 93% of the funds raised go directly to program support. What's more, with 130 Chapters across the State of North Carolina, they have the ability to identify local needs often overlooked by the huge Foundations. Also we continually see funding being reduced, rather than increased.

One of my favorite stories, recently at a check presentation to a local public school system, the head of the program came up to me and pointed out new lights in the ceiling. She pointed out that until recently they were florescent lights which some people with intellectual disabilities have a problem with. She said previously they could not obtain the funding to replace the lights - and without our support the problem would still exist.
