Would you recommend Ruth Dykeman Children's Center?

by Renz G. (March 2, 2010)
Ruth Dykeman Children Center is a great organization to volunteer at. The people are really nice to work with and I've been gaining a lot of work experience. Contacting Ruth Dykeman and applying for the volunteer position was really easy for me. Corrigan (VP and main contact person) was very quick to respond to emails so I was able to start volunteering shortly after our first correspondence. Having worked past my required 20 hours, I plan to keep volunteering as long as I can because it's been really fun and fulfilling to be able to help out this organization.
