Joining the NGO team of UniversalGiving opened my eyes to a multitude of different facets the non-profit sector has to offer: Not only did I learn about managing and partnering with non-governmental organizations around the world, but the support and passion of the rest of the UG team propelled me to realize a plethora of opportunities for both my life and career. I loved coming into the Hub to work with the NGO team and will always be a huge advocate for this innovative and motivated organization's model and vision. I am proud to have initiated and managed multiple partnerships between UniversalGiving and NGOs around the world. I am so appreciative that I had the opportunity to use my country-specific passions and knowledge to link UG with organizations in Kenya.

I've been volunteering with UniversalGiving for the last few months. Today is my last day actually and I have to say it has been an incredible experience. The people are really nice and take what they do very seriously. I know who I will definitely be donating through in the future.

UniversalGiving is a small group of highly devoted people who want to make the world a better place by involving everyone in donating or volunteering in whatever ways they can. They use all the possible methods to make it safe and easy for people to get involved with activities around the world. The ability to choose from a variety of locations and topics allows the user to explore the many ways they can make a difference. What is most impressive is that UniversalGiving does this all for free to the user; no fees are required for their service. UniversalGiving makes giving back to the community and the world so much easier and for that they should be applauded. Thank you, UniversalGiving.

If you want to gain professional experience and help a wonderful organization, UniversalGiving is the perfect choice. Volunteers are generally given lots of trust and responsibility--and the management to make you feel supported. With UniversalGiving, you don't feel like an outsider come to help out--when you volunteer, you're part of the team.
