Working and learning from Margaret is an invaluable experience. She has a lot of hosting experience and is able to navigate cultural factors with ease. This is such a strong program with a great team and getting to know the children here has been so influential. I would recommend this experience to anyone interested in non-profit building, disability, public health, and general cultural exchange.
