My Nonprofit Reviews

I got an opportunity to intern with ZYEP - sharing my MPH skills to help them improve their self evaluation. Ultimately, the organization gave much more to me. At summer camp I watched the children play competitive yet cooperative games, absorb pottery skills from a local artist, and share deep difficult emotions once it was modeled by their Zuni counselors. I learned new recipes from the nutritionist that made food accessible to students and had amazing plans for incorporating cooking and food choices year long. I could rely on seeing students playing soccer every day in the facilities ZYEP makes available. I have a new appreciation for storytelling and performers excellently costumed as a coyote or badger. ZYEP ticks my adoration for learning, community and new experiences- in mind and emotion. I recommend any of their programs or opportunities to participate in leadership.
