My Nonprofit Reviews

OLASTEO provided me with my absolute favorite experience of high school. OLASTEO teaches students in a way that school will never be able to because it allows us to learn from first hand accounts and experience these heavy topics for ourselves. During my excursion to Alabama, I was able to visit the Legacy Museum which helped me see the Civil Rights Movement in a completely different way: through empathy. OLASTEO’s also helped me build community through learning about these difficult topics with still remaining close with people I met at my excursion. OLASTEO is such an important organization because it helps students learn in ways that are impactful such as through empathy and experiences that let students actually take a closer look at themselves and the people around us.
