Solutions For Change is an amazing organization with a great cause! Homelessness is affecting many individuals in the San Diego area and their mission to spread awareness and stop the spread of a phenomenon called The Churn, a cycle of poverty, homelessness, and insecurities. Love volunteering for this organization!

Solutions for Change is an amazing non-profit organization located in Vista, CA and I got the opportunity to work with them as a Social Media Ambassador and a Kid Zone Volunteer! I only have good things to say about them! I love they work they do for my community and I am proud to be working with them.

My time with Solutions for Change just started but I can already tell that this is an amazing organization and I am truly inspired by all the work that they do to better this community. They have inspired me to become more educated about poverty :)

I love my experience volunteering at the Solutions Farm. Going there two to three times a week brings me joy. The purpose of the organization is noble and much needed. I appreciate the opportunity to work alongside the people dedicated to the program. The residents, staff, and other volunteers have all been wonderful. Learning about aquaponics and helping grow delicious lettuce is an added bonus. I encourage you to join.

Thanks! Your review is awaiting moderation.
