My Nonprofit Reviews

This is not a great non profit. The leaders are petty and thoroughly unprofessional. We took our family on a spring break trip to Costa Rica. The community partners were great. After a hard day of work including extra contributions on our part to complete a project, we were invited to the home of a community partner. We thought nothing of accepting after asking our group leader to join us (Vanessa had left this leader in charge because she had a more important group to attend to)
The host offered wine and one of our group thought it polite to accept one glass. The group leader said nothing at the time but reported it to Vanessa and partner. They sent a college intern to chastise us and tell us the family was no longer a part of the trip. They refused to meet with us face to face. Seriously, they left us in the middle of Costa Rica to fend for ourselves. Fortunately, we had already planned to be apart from the group on our own and scheduled transportation. The saga continued with many more unprofessional and petty incidents. I’ve volunteered many times in multiple countries and have never experienced more dysfunctional leadership. I would never travel with this org again and be warned not to work for them unless you want to see how not to lead.
