this organization will give you the hours you need to do; whether is for school,court mandated or just for the improvement of the community. they will find a job based on your skills and they will teach you if you do not have any skills, great place to perform community hours. I did mine in their current location in Hialeah gardens city hall, parking is free and next to the building. if you need to do your hours contact Iris Paguada : 786-278-8559 she is the founder and CEO she is a busy lady, but if you are willing to make the trip she will see you and try to help you out with your community hours. I will be doing a few extra hours just because it is a good environment.

My family and I volunteered for this organization on Jan 30th. We arrived at our post at 10:0am Sat. We were greeted by Iris Paguada (CIO) President, very professional very informative.Our experience with this organization was wonderful. My children learned the value of helping the community and making a difference.All four of us received free Disney tickets from the Hands on Network for our efforts. We would definitely consider volunteering for CIO again. Thank you for giving us the opportunity to be involved with such a great organization.....See you soon!!!!!

Sent my contact information, and received my material within one week. I needed 150 hours, so the 5 bonus hours every 20 really added up. Also being able to complete my hours from home was a huge plus due to my crazy travel schedule. Would definitely recommend to anyone!

I was sent my packet to get started with the data entry fairly quickly. Communication was very easy between myself and the organization. Gave me proof of hours as I needed them. Would use again in the future.
