Review for Community United Effort (CUE), Wilmington, NC, USA
I have been a volunteer with CUE since 2011. This is a hard working and dedicated group of volunteers who give their time, sweat and tears to help families and agencies try and resolve a missing persons case. The work is hard and requires you to know your skills and limitations. Sometimes we get volunteers who sign up to help,but have their own agenda....these people don't stay with CUE long because we don't allow individual agendas. We are all working toward the same goal...which is to help bring resolve to a case. We don't work for notoriety, money, fame or personal agendas. CUE takes a stand to always be an advocate for families and missing persons. However, putting other volunteers at risk is not something we allow. A K9 handler, Briar M posted comments on 8/22/2017 stating negative comments about CUE because she was asked to leave a search. This handler was asked to leave the search because she was putting herself and others in danger, and left the search without notifying the proper individuals. This was not the first time she had been spoken to about her actions during a search. Sadly, she has made comments on here that do not reflect the true story of her being asked to leave. She neglects to mention that lodging, meals and fuel reimbursement is provided by CUE to all volunteers. She also fails to mention that she, not CUE, is the one who chose to obtain and train a K9. CUE appreciates, and holds volunteers at an utmost level of respect, however, will not allow reckless behavior to interfere with a missing persons case.
Review for Community United Effort (CUE), Wilmington, NC, USA
This is the most dedicated selfless organization! The saying "every missing person is somebody's child" always holds true with this organization. The founder and searchers donate many hours of their time, travel regularly, obtain training, work cases, fundraise, train K9's.and horses, use their personal vehicles all in the hope to help families of missing ontain resolution. It is an honor to be able to volunteer with this organization.
