My Nonprofit Reviews

There are many organizations that provide service in far off places. Youthlinc does that, but that is just part of what they do. The international service they give is great, but really is a secondary goal of their main objection--"Creating long-long humanitarian." Once a young person is selected into the program, they have monthly meetings planning and preparing. They learn how to organize things and work as a team. Individually, they are required to give local volunteer hours to go on the international trip--anywhere from 60 - 100. Many of these incredible young people serve well beyond their required time. While the international trips are about two weeks long, participating is about an 8-month commitment. It is an incredible learning, growing and service-oriented experience.
