Don’t take it from us.

Here’s what others have to say.
I keep serving with Great Shape! Inc. because it fills a place in my heart that nothing else has ever filled. It has changed the person I am. Others should join me because they will experience love. I don’t think there is any other way to say it.
Jennie Gerow Wright5-Time 1000 Smiles Volunteer
I’ve done volunteer work in the U.S. it’s wonderful, they appreciate it. But here the needs are so much more. It’s amazing. I’m getting goose bumps just talking about it.
Gisela GriebDental Assistant, 1000 Smiles Volunteer
Thank you for the computer lab, it really helps us to read and write. If there was no computer room we would not know how to do a lot of things.
AkieliaSuperKids Student, Kendall
… to see people coming here from the US, taking time out from their schedules to come here. We appreciate it a whole lot, whatever help we can get, we’ll take it and we appreciate it a whole bunch.
Leon LamontTeacher, Jamaica
It’s giving people an opportunity they wouldn’t have otherwise. It’s a small thing. We seem to get a lot more praise than we deserve here at Sandals. We’re just a small part of this humanitarian program, it’s the folks at Great Shape! who really deserve the thank you’s.
Brian RoperSandals’ Ocho Rios Grande
I respect Great Shape! tremendously because I see every bit of it goes back into the program. We are all volunteers. We’ve contributed money to the program, we contribute our time and it shows the sacrifice that everyone makes to make the organization work. There isn’t money for administration, it just goes back to the kids, back to the communities.
Virginia SilbowitzSuperKids Volunteer, Oregon
It’s just such a wonderful experience. The music, the food, the people, everyone’s heart just opening to welcome us and us to them as well. It’s just a wonderful exchange and I recommend it to anyone.
Kay Knack1000 Smiles Volunteer, Oregon
The Sandals Foundation is proud to partner with Great Shape! Inc. again and again. The Sandals Foundation stands firm in its belief that proper healthcare should be accessible to all. The gift of vision is priceless and we are grateful to the many volunteers who come to Jamaica each year to improve the lives of so many people.
Heidi ClarkeiCARE -- Director of Programmes, Sandals Foundation
Hundreds of people are waiting in line when we arrive each morning, many of them haven’t been able to see for years. We take great care of them with exams and then the magic moment when our doctors prescribe the perfect glasses. They cry with joy when they see our faces for the first time.
