Review for WAGES (Women's Action to Gain Economic Security), Oakland, CA, USA
I started volunteering with WAGES in early 2009 and it has been a wonderful experience for me. Through volunteering with Wages I have learned so much about coops and the many benefits of being a worker owner-from additional job security, health benefits, and empowerment. I'm learning tons and excited to continue volunteering with WAGEs!

If this organization had 10 million bucks, it could...
help incubate green cleaning coops around the country and create wide spread change within the cleaning industry- an industry were sadly quite a bit of exploitation and pollution take place.

Im still a relatively new volunteer, I look forward to working more with this organization in the future.
In my opinion, the biggest challenges facing this organization are...
They have big goals and a small staff, financial constraints are always a challenge for small non profits
One thing I'd also say is that...
Eco-Friendly, Worker Friendly and the cleaning service is great quality- I have nothing but good things to say about what I have seen from Wages and their affiliated coops so far.
