  • Due to an issue with the charity not being able to provide us the information, this question won't be complete
  • Although, based on experience, I would say their ability to serve clients is not amazing
  • Our group booked over a week in advanced to meet with the charity and no one was there to help us
  • It shows irresponsibility and lack of ability to properly serve their clients
