My Nonprofit Reviews

As a member coach for close to 30 years, the benefit of the NSDA is immeasurable. From hosting the largest academic competition each year to the outstanding curriculum offered to members and non-members, the NSDA has it covered. The unique thing about the NSDA is that they (I say they because it's more than a non-profit, it's a community) truly listen to the member coaches and students. As an educator of 34 years, I can think no other extra/co-curricular activity that builds so much in young people. It helps with the obvious, public speaking skills and performing but it also teaches critical thinking, the ability to lose with grace, social skills, how to think on their feet and so much more. I can't imagine my career being as long as it has been without the existence of the NSDA. Truly a top notch organization geared toward the growth of youth.
