Review for Chewonki Foundation Inc, Wiscasset, ME, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

The faculty, staff and students at Chewonki make conservation an active and natural part of their daily lives. There is a focus on a sense of place and a love for the woods and coastlines that frame Chewonki that make it a truly unique organization.

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

the lives of students who attend the Maine Coast Semester Program

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

a sense and conscious appreciation for place. I move a lot but Chewonki taught me that I can find a closeness to each new place and i've found that this renewed sense of connection to the places i live encourages my interest in conservation of areas where I may only live or visit for brief periods of time.

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

INCREDIBLE. The teachers were among the best I have ever met, largely because they truly wanted to be there sharing their knowledge and lives with students.

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

open its camps and school to financially disadvantaged children and to children from a broader geographic range.

When was your last experience with this nonprofit?

2008

Role:  Client Served & student.
