Olesia Petrochenkova, Producer
CPI was the first nonprofit organization I volunteered with after moving to the United States, and I’m deeply grateful for the experience. It provided a supportive and friendly community while giving me the opportunity to apply my professional skills in the local market.
Collaborating with other volunteers greatly enhanced my efforts in creating social media content, making our work even more impactful.
Through CPI, I met many kind and talented people, some of whom became close friends.
Volunteering at CPI was a pivotal part of my immigrant journey and truly the best way to start a new chapter in a new country.
