Review for Chewonki Foundation Inc, Wiscasset, ME, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

I went to Chewonki camp 55 years ago. But when they started their environmental teaching and leadership years ago it made a strong, positive impression on me and on the state of Maine as well. I have always thought of them in the forefront of sustainable and earth wise action. I now send my son to camp there, and I am proud of the level of awareness and guidance that the organization has fostered.

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

the conservation/ presevation of precious land areas in and around Maine.

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

warmth, understanding and gentle nudging of those who question the need for saving the environment that is a result of running a camp and school that are total focused on the outdoor world.

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

intellegent and respectful people.

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

resposibly continue in a very focused and directed way the work of teaching the world the importance of saving the environment and living sustainably.

When was your last experience with this nonprofit?

2008
