First time going to the retail shop. Great finds, variety of things you can find. The store manager Ms. Janet was super nice, and also very kind staff.

I've been trying to get assistance but every time I call the line is busy, can I go up there without calling ? The phone service is horrible nobody ever answer

Sierra Giles | Oct 20, 2019
Mercedes Santos | Oct 20, 2019

Sorry, the demand for financial assistance is great and the phone lines do get busy. You only need to call, though, if you are needing assistance to pay rent, mortgage or utilities, and you must live in one of WHAM's service zip code (see whamministries.org). Call at 10am to make a phone appointment and continue calling if the line appears busy. You can walk in for food assistance, employment services and most other programs they offer. Financial Assistance is the only program that needs a previous appointment by phone.

robert demetro | Oct 19, 2021
Alan Little | Oct 19, 2021

Could be because they are extremely busy at this time delivering food daily through their drive through food pantry. I dont think that they are actually in their offices as they normally would be because of the pandemic. If youre curious about the food distribution, I believe it is M- Sat. I know for a fact that the food distribution is from 9am to 11am daily. But cars begin to line up around 7am. Hope this helps you

Do they help with rent still? Called but cant get anybody on the line. If so, when and what time can we go in?

Loni Rodriguez | Oct 19, 2020
Mercedes Santos | Oct 19, 2020

Yes, but appointments are no longer made over the phone. It is now a walk-in, first come, first serve system for financial appointments (rent or utilities). The first 7-10 people with complete paperwork are helped per day with financial assistance. Clients can start lining up at 9am at WHAM. Those needing food are all helped the same day, but they must arrive between 9am and 2pm.

Hi hoping to get some help with rent for myself and family what are the requirements?

Krystle Shelton | Oct 20, 2018
C. Hopes | Oct 20, 2018

You are REQUIRED to have photo id, ssn card, late notices of bills...(make sure account # is affixed to the notice). And, a good solid explanation of how you will pay next months bill(s). If you are receiving some sort of government assistance provide that as well. It'll make your case go alot easier. Very nice and professorial agency. But, bare patience as you are the one needing the assistance... You will be verified that's for sure. #socialservicesatwork
