    What special gifts or human attributes do you feel this candidate will bring to the children and others they serve?

    Would you ever recommend them for a volunteer position internationally?

    What is the most favorite thing that they ever did or the best memory you can think of involving this candidate?

    Is there anything you wish you could change that would make them the perfect volunteer candidate?

    Would you like to add anything else about this candidate?

    Thank you for taking the time to help us with answering these questions. The volunteer obviously thinks a great deal of you to list you as a reference.
