My Nonprofit Reviews
Mary Holbrow
Review for Brackett Refugee Education Fund, Hamilton, NY, USA
Tom and Liz Brackett have a deep altruism that comes from the heart and has great staying power; I have seen that in action over many years. Strong organizational skills come with it, plus a spirit that brings other people with them into this good cause. A look at the BREF newsletter and balance sheet shows that what they spend has impressive results in an area with overwhelming problems.
More Feedback
I've personally experienced the results of this organization in...
education and opportunities for young people whose situations would otherwise be nearly hopeless.
If I had to make changes to this organization, I would...
try not to change a thing.
What I've enjoyed the most about my experience with this nonprofit is...
seeing the good results, and staying in touch with the Brackett family.
The kinds of staff and volunteers that I met were...
without exception outstanding.
If this organization had 10 million bucks, it could...
keep up the good work and also invest in the future of the organization--might need more paid staff.
Ways to make it better...
if I weren't so far away; supporters at a distance see the good results, but they miss some good times.
In my opinion, the biggest challenges facing this organization are...
maintaining continuity over time.
One thing I'd also say is that...
If the BREF had been in charge of US relations with Iraq, Iran, and Afghanistan, we'd be in a better place.
