Review for Foundation for Sustainable Development, Oakland, CA, USA
FSD is a wonderful organization that provides internship opportunities in developing countries. In-country staff, Peter, is extremely supportive and understanding. You are encouraged to make a difference while learning and growing in understanding of the people and place where you are living. FSD has been integral in supporting grassroots efforts by their volunteers to create a better world.
