Review for Sarah Heinz House Association, Pittsburgh, PA, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

Several years ago, my colleague and I started raising funds for children from an underprivileged school district in Colliers, WV. It broke my heart to see some of these kids without enough food, with no notebooks or pencils for school. We started a vending service in our office and used the proceeds to purchase clothes, school supplies, snacks, etc. for the kids and have been doing so every year. The feeling of making a difference in their lives is unparalleled. When I heard about the Sarah Heinz House and what they do for children in similar situations, I was immediately drawn to the organization and wanted to play a part in aiding their mission. Once I joined, I was amazed by the intelligence, drive and kindness in each and every one of the children who come through SHH. It's sincerely an incredible organization that I'm more than proud to be a part of. SHH is a vital outlet for so many kids – impacting their lives in the best way so they can achieve everything they dream of.

Review for Sarah Heinz House Association, Pittsburgh, PA, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

I have been involved with Sarah Heinz House for about a year now and am very impressed with the work of the organization. They show a deep interest in developing the childrens' skills in teamwork, responsibility, discipline and respect. Shh is an outlet for kids to learn outside of their daily life activities. SHH cares and helps cultivate youth into becoming respectable members of the community.
