My Nonprofit Reviews

When I select a nonprofit to which I commit time and money, I adhere to the philosophy of "Give a man a fish and feed him for a day; give him a rod and he can feed himself for a lifetime." Many aspects of Shared Beat deserve praise, but the most improtant aspect of their programs is their sustainability. Medical exams are biannual, and the vision and hearing programs provide glasses and hearing aides used year-round. Shared Beat also provides scholarships for students in health related professions including medical, nursing and allied health schools. The emphasis is empowering Guatemalans to improve their own well being. Shared Beat is an exemplary nonprofit that creates lasting change in the lives of children and families in Guatemala.
