Review for Christian Service Center Inc, Gulf Shores, AL, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

I work as a volunteer in the food pantry program for the Christian Service Center. I am now in my 4th year of service. I am 72 years old and can truly say I have never served an organization which provides as much help to those seeking assistance with rent, utilities, food and other emergency aid as this one. The Center is sponsored by 21 community churches, all of which support the center with food and cash donations. What a joy to work with such dedicated volunteers. There are NO paid staff.....everyone who works here is a volunteer

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

the faces and smiles of those who receive our services after they have received them

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

Keep it running just as it is.

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

working with the other volunteers and interacting with businesses who donate to us

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

super attentive and caring.

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

continue doing what it is doing indefinitely.

Ways to make it better...

we had unlimited funds to do more

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

continuing to meet fund raising requirements

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

Everyone needs help once in a while. That this organization is able to do that justifies its existence

When was your last experience with this nonprofit?

2010

Role:  Volunteer & Purchase, glean and distribute food to the hundreds of clients who come to the center annaully.
