Review for Sunset Youth Services, San Francisco, CA, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

I had been volunteering with Sunset Youth Services (SYS) for over four years before deciding to join their Board of Directors in 2009. I'm so energized to be a Board Member! SYS is a truly amazing organization. Their staff are among some of the most compassionate people I have ever met. The kids they serve are inspiring. I am truly humbled by what some of these kids have been through before the age of 10, and how, with the support of SYS and the programs offered, they have changed their lives around and set the course to be successful adults. Every time I visit the youth center, I'm reminded just how critical the work of SYS really is. Our neighborhoods would not be the same without them.

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

how much the attitudes of young people in our neighborhoods are improved by the work of SYS.

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

interacting with staff, board, volunteers and clients of Sunset Youth Services

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

compassionate, energized, smart, proactive!

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

have a huge impact on reducing juvenile justice issues.
