Went to donate e-waste and their collection areas, but they charge! And way more than a recycling place. They already make money off the electronics and they want you to pay them (as a donation) to get rid of your donation. MONEY GRUBBING CHARITY.

I am enjoying a beautiful day with my husband Abel. It’s typical we always go for breakfast and depending where we are then we venture on a walk! Such a lovely day, not too warm and I’m able to walk now without my BootCam from foot surgery removing cancer. Through our journey, we came to This amazing place, it gave me chills and a smile to my face. There was a very welcoming gentleman at the door to greet us. I was inquiring actual time fo volunteer work. I am on permanent disability and I have been looking for something to fill my days ! I think I’ve found it, it’s s calling that I need to fulfill!! I’ll be back Monday to talk to someone to provide my service. I love people, and want to be a part of this. God Bless you Mariane Hernandez

Very nice people work there. Lunch is free, nice tables and chairs, flowers on the tables, clean bathrooms, generous portions, smiles, deserts. Staff very helpful and kind, finding jackets and shoes and hygiene items, making arrangements to feed shut-ins, going above and beyond the idea of their job description. At the back of the dining room are lots of shelves and tables with all kinds of bread, produce, donated food items and books. Dinners are allowed to take what they want. I have heard people ask for a food bank kind of box and staff was very accommodating asking questions about family size and ages. Very helpful place to find yourself.
