Review for Youthlinc, Salt Lake City, UT, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

This program is a very outgoing, fun, and dedicated organization. It is connecting us volunteers/participants to local agencies with needs for services. Doing local service also gets us a sponsorship amount towards the costs of our trips, which is very beneficial. I think this local service will further give us appreciation for the international service we will do in the summer. We do monthly meetings and the time is flying by as we prepare in 5 separate committees--education, cultural, medical, vocational/micro-financing, and construction. Youthlinc takes a fairly comprehensive approach in planning for the summer international experiences so that we can be more effective in our short time-period internationally. Those involved in Youthlinc must go through an application process, so that those who are in the program, are dedicated, outgoing, and hard-working. Overall I am very pleased with my experience with Youthlinc so far and am anticipating the summer international service we will be doing to connect our local service growth to international service.
