Review for Creative Reaction Lab, Saint Louis, MO, USA
RUN FOR THE HILLS! DO NOT DONATE! SCAM ALERT! This organization is fraudulent through and through from the head to the toe. Starting with the Founder, President and CEO (AC), she is a popular voice in the equity space, yet doesn’t practice what she claims to believe in and preach. Internally, the organization may have began as a solution and benefit resource, however, in present day, it offers hostility to employees past and present (most likely future), zero presence in the St. Louis community where CRXLAB is founded/located and funded programs that are either nonexistent or little to no participation (lower numbers than they claim to have). Currently there’s a small board of around 5 folks whom are really only there to help raise funds for the organization (money hungry 24/7), 1 CEO, 2 Chief Executives and 1 FT employee*. Everyone else (if there’s anyone else) is contracted. Those tiny numbers alone isn’t sufficient to support and serve the youth they claim to be about. Oh, and THERE AREN’T ANY LATINX REPRESENTATION of any kind and the retention rate is extremely high. Ask them how many employees they’ve had in the last 365 days. Basically, the organization is being funded, yet the funds are being used to keep the organization afloat; ZERO ACTUAL IMPACT PRESENT DAY. This isn’t a real nonprofit. It’s a complete front. DO. NOT. DONATE.
