My Nonprofit Reviews

One of the things I like best about ACS is how they provide information on crucial developments in civil rights. One of my favorite topics is voting rights, and learning about voter suppression tactics that hinder the progress that has been made. We must stay vigilant.

I enjoy learning about Supreme Court cases and developments in a fun and informative manner and venue. The fellowship is uplifting.

Perhaps what I find most important, is that I like the way ACS facilitates Constitution in the Classroom (CITC). This program helps ACS members and staff get the word out to DC public school students about the importance of the US Constitution. The instructors tackle and discuss issues relevant to the youth. Further, when students meet a variety of visitors who they might not regularly engage with, CITC demonstrates that there are many kinds of people in, and aspects of, the legal profession. And the instructors can benefit from the interaction with bright young people who they don't often encounter. For me, it's simply a great community service event all around. Ming Lowe

I have know of the good work of Mary's Center for a long time, mainly because a fellow parent worked there. I volunteered for the first time with Mary's Center this year. I enjoyed my experience tutoring students at Briya Public Charter School. Sincerely, Ming Lowe
