My Nonprofit Reviews

Maggie Anton
Review for Academy of Natural Sciences of Drexel University, Philadelphia, PA, USA
I have been a volunteer at the Academy of Natural Sciences for 9 years. They have enriched my life with knowledge and wonder of the natural world. Volunteering has given me the opportunity to meet some of the most interesting people and brightest people I have ever met. Being in there company and sharing their life expereices has broaden my views and made me more curious and adventurous. When I think about the Academy I know I would have never been able to be in a room with the presidents of natural science museums around the world, listen to an owner of a blood hound who saved a child’s life, hear the tales of an arctic explorer or see a man make a beard of bees. But most importantly, I can see every time I go there a child who may be newly discovering the wonder of butterflies or a 10 year old boy who has been studying dinosaurs his whole life see first hand tiki taka and be changed forever. That is why I go to the Academy, they give me far more than I give them, all I give them is my time.
