Review for Canvass for a Cause, San Diego, CA, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

I volunteer a few hours a week updating their membership list. They are a dedicated group who spend hours in the sun informing people and correcting misinformation about gay marriage and other issues on their slate. They are courageous and often have to put up with a lot of negative, harsh feedback. I first met two of them in from of Walmart and began asking if they were aware of the religious misinformation behind Prop 8. I saw that they needed some help and offered to do what I could. For many of them this is their day job and they need contributions to be able to continue. This is an organization worth contributing to as well as volunteering for.

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

It is gratifiying to see so many people interested in helping with this legal/social problem.

If I had to make changes to this organization, I would...

They need more office furniture, lamps, and volunteers.

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

working with the people.

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

great.

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

properly canvass communities before critical elections.

Ways to make it better...

there were more comfortable office furniture.

In my opinion, the biggest challenges facing this organization are...

dealing with mass hysteria over missunderstood issues.

One thing I'd also say is that...

it is a pleasure helping them with what I can do.
