Volunteer Testimonials:
by Angie K. from San Diego, CA (March 25, 2010) - If you're interested in issues and events related with cross-culture/multi-culture, this is the place you'd love to join. Tom, the founder, will be a very helpful resource to anyone who would like to learn more about cultures. Besides, they link your interests with what is available in the organization together to make your volunteer experience enjoyable. And everyone here is super nice, friendly, and always willing to share information with you.
by Ana P. (April 23, 2025) - The Worldview Project is an amazing organization. I’ve had the privileged of volunteering with them for 6 years (2017 - 2023), during my time with them I have met and worked with a lot of incredible people who were just as passionate and determined about sharing the wealth of knowledge and resources available for cross-cultural exchange in San Diego and beyond. Tom, Shari, and the entire The WVP board members are made up of educated, professional, kind hearted and sincere team members with wonderful ideas and projects to help make our local communities (and beyond) a better place to live in! Additionally, Tom and Shari have been an amazing source of guidance and inspiration in my personal career as I went from a post-grad student to a working full-time professional. They were always so generous with their time and friendship. I am forever grateful for the 6 years I spent volunteering with The Worldview Project family and highly recommend you check them out - you will not regret it!
