Casa Alianza testimonial re: online volunteering In Latin America, an estimated 40 million children live or work in the streets, where violence, hunger, and neglect are part of their day-to-day lives. For the past 20 years, Casa Alianza, a part of New York-based Covenant House, has been providing at-risk children in Guatemala, Costa Rica, Ecuador, Honduras, and Mexico with vital services to get them off the streets and into stable care. Bruce Harris, Executive Director of Casa Alianza, attributes, in part, the international growth and awareness of the organization to the expertise of volunteers recruited through the NetAid Online Volunteering Service (http://www.netaid.org/ov). "Without OV, we would not have been able to have our web site in so many different languages," says Mr. Harris. "Working with skilled 'electronic' volunteers has allowed us to get more people worldwide involved in helping to stop the killing of children in Central America."
