“This is one of the greatest community centers in Palo Alto. Everybody is so nice and friendly. Can't wait to go back to pre-Covid19 days where everyday and every week there is an event planned out by this community center. Good old days. Please get the Adas Cafe in the community center more active. We all miss the options of walking out of library or the community center and grab a cold or hot drink with a dessert or a small bite. Thank for your work Mitchell Park Community Center.”
“Believe the hype! I went here based on the great reviews and I had an amazing experience. Stayed for almost two hours and it wasn't nearly enough time to immerse myself as much as I would have. I'm not exactly an art buff, nor a nature buff, but as someone who loves to travel and learn, I found so much to enjoy in this unique artwork. The audio tour accompaniment - especially getting to hear the artist himself navigate you through his work - was a great addition. The museum staff were lovely, as well.”
“Palo Alto Players consistently puts out high quality plays. We've been going to their show for over a decade and have never been disappointed. The auditorium is not large. It really helps you be drawn onto the stage. Recommended!”
“So cool! I highly recommend visiting this place if you want to film something in a studio! Filming is fun because all the staffs are super nice, nice equipment, and it's well maintained. You also get to meet new people and have a good time!”
“I've been a member of HeartFit since 2014. I love this program! The nurses and fitness staff are all amazing knowledgeable people. They make exercising and staying healthy fun. :-) I've never felt better! I feel so lucky to be a part of this wonderful program.”
“We had a private function there and the staff was super helpful. The venue itself is a beautiful old building. Stage and various seating arrangement are available. We kept it very simple but you can make it super fancy too.”

I can’t recommend blossombirth more to all expecting and new parents.It’s team of selfless individuals who are doing so much for the community and demonstrate how much they care about you in every single class!”
“Met the executive director at questa park they were planting new trees for the community. Lovely group - excited to volunteer and support them. Please plant edible trees for the public!”
“Wonderful nature center. Learn about the joys, beauty, and value of wetlands. Watch and listen to birds. Spot rabbits. Learn about migrating birds, native plants, and tides.The dirt trail is flat that runs along the water. Maybe a bit hard for walker or wheelchairs.There are several parking lots with accessible parking by the nature center.The building the nature center is housed in looks like a ship. It was once the home of the Sea Scouts.The nature center has bathrooms.The Palo Alto airport is just over the road. You can watch small planes come and go.”
“I have been on the Board of Friends for Youth for about a year. I have been enormously impressed by the professionalism and dedication of the staff, and the testimonials of mentees about the positive impact on their lives of the mentoring facilitated by FFY. I encourage anyone who can to donate to this organization to help them continue and expand their important work.”
“Isaac was a super Friendly and funny guy and was QUICK to help us unload our donation. Couldn’t have asked for a better experience. EXCELLENT customer service! Thankyou! ?”
“I was a member a long time ago. I fell away and now all these years later understand that these disciples are truly on the right path. Ever since I fell away I've never felt the same or seen the world the same. The fire that was once there is finally gone. The Bible said this would happen to me but my pride keeps me away. Anyways I really hope u make the right decision if someone has shared their faith withyou! GO and study with them It really will change you forever!”
“My interactions with Vista Center started because of a referral from my doctor. She said I didn't walk with confidence and this could be helped by using a cane. I thought blind people used canes so I was a little surprised since I have low vision. At any rate, I went along with this keeping an open mind.Vista Center reached out. I was first visited by a nice gentleman who interviewed me to determine the need. Then I was visited by an environment specialist. This very friendly and knowledgeable lady proceeded to put tactile markers on my microwave, stove and laptop. She also made some lighting recommendations in addition to introducing me to an app for my phone to help read my snailmail. After providing tons of literature, she left. Next, I was visited by an O & M Specialist. This friendly and knowledgeable lady brought mobility canes with her and let me try them after some instruction. After providing the specs for the cane that worked the best, she left.At this point, it was up to me to decide how to go forward. Because of these very knowledgeable folks, I have made all of their recommendations. As a result, life is soooooo much easier now. Cooking no longer involves multiple trips to the cancel button. I no longer have to find the printscreen button on my laptop. The house lighting is much brighter with the huge plus of being energy efficient since many replaced bulbs were non-LED and/or old spirals. When the cane arrived, I took the cane to the back yard and walked around with the skills I had learned. Even a familiar place was easier to navigate with the cane. I went out to the store with the cane for my weekly trip. It usually took about 2 hours. With the cane, it took 1 hour 15 minutes since my confidence bucket was full. I had the O & M Specialist return for an unfamiliar route in my neighborhood in addition to a short, familiar path for her to supervise and check me.Besides my doctors, these folks truly know and understand the world of sight impairment. They met me where I am and never made me feel belittled or stupid. It was truly a breath of fresh air being with people who actually understand my issues and know how to help. I also learned that canes are not for only blind individuals but are hugely helpful for us low vision folks. I can't thank Vista Center enough for improving my world. I realize now that I didn't know that I didn't know. Vista Center is truly a goldmine find and I HIGHLY recommend them.”
