“When it comes to challenging poverty and the massive inequity of the world, Don is able to move with both compassion and justice...
in a way that helps those in need while simultaneously addressing the reasons they are in need to begin with. He builds up the dignity and unlocks the hope of everyone around him. As the projects he leads bear fruit, Don likes moving out of the spotlight so the resources go to the people he is working with.”
Shane Claiborne,
Author, Activist and Co-founder of Red Letter Christians
“Don Golden is creative and hard-working.
During his three year contract with the Red Letter Christians movement Don demonstrated that he is an able promoter who has a vision that challenges those who work with him. We would hire him again without hesitation. He gets two thumbs up from me."
