This is an exciting organization with volunteers who have a caring/working mindset to help children and families in need. It was important to me to feel that my volunteer time was well really useful. All profits and donations go directly to philanthropic programs. I joined in the fall of 2011 and it has been a pleasure to work with such a wonderful, friendly, hardworking group of members.
