My Nonprofit Reviews

The Nickolay Dodov Foundation is amazing. Natalia and Alex Dodov have created a foundation that provides free avalanche education to youth and adults across California, the United States, and even in Bulgaria and other countries. In just the past few years the NDF has provided this free education to over 12,500 youth on an extremely limited budget. The NDF has also set a standard for transparency, receiving three consecutive Guidestar Platinum Seals of Transparency, a rating only given to the top 0.5% of non-profits. I strongly support the NDF, and I am proud to serve as a Special Advisor. Hooray, Alex and Natalia!
