“07-26-2024 - VFW American Legion Roselle Cruise Nights does a fabulous job every year. This show featured the incredible and fantastic Rick Lindy and the Wild Ones.”
“Thank goodness someone recommended Elder Werks to me! I am not at all kidding when I say they found me two brilliant facilities I would not have found on my own! My contact Tamera was always responsive, compassionate, and just great to talk to. This is a fantastic service with fantastic people and its all free! If it seems to good to be true... well in this case, it is true! They are the real deal!”
“For a minimal effort and a fun event, you can help starving people around the globe. This is a very worthwhile charity- I try to do it every time the opportunity arises.”
“My experience here was amazing. Everyone is very supportive and informative in what resources there are. They really care, are compassionate, and check in on you during your journey and after. I can say I don't know where I would've been without their support and am thankful for everything they helped me through. This is a wonderful place.”
“I was here for the As Good as Gold Gala. The venue was great. Easy parking, big drive up drop off area. Spacious bathrooms. The service and facility was pretty and very well maintained.”
“What a great facility! A little confusing on the check in…. I think you need to check in before you shop. I don’t really know. I’ve been here a few times and each time, I find cool things for my classroom. Lately, I’ve need stem stuff for an afterschool club and scarce has not disappointed with options or ideas. Thank you.”
“Highly recommend if you are interested in developing your psychic abilities and trusting your intuition or just meeting likeminded people. I’m Very grateful to have found this place. Great people and great classes”
“We are appreciated to this organization, especially to Christine, Monika and Tina. These women helped my family with temporary housing, to find place for rent. It took some time but helped us, and all your staff was kind to us. Thanks! Also we've got some food from their food pantry.”
“The best attention. Make all person feeling important. I go get food. I not feeling bad. Only covered our needs in all we need They don’t make feeling How poor you are , we’re all important . When I go I come back home. Very happy. Much emotion”
“I love, love, love, LOOOOOOOOVE this place and even more, the fact that the WINGS program even exists! The ONLIEST reason I rate 4 stars instead of 5 is because they close so darn early, and I can't always get there on the weekends to shop. They used to be open until 6pm during the week, and IDK what happened to that. :(”
“This organization is doing an amazing part of keeping our wildlife in balance. They always have kittens for adoption and make sure the ferals are taken care of so they don’t make more. Adopt don’t shop!”
“Hello,The people that volunteer are so kind and NEVER make you feel bad for requesting help..I barely have any teeth left, do certain items are hard for me to eatCan I suggest something like that be added to the list you fill out when you arrive?I was given Italian bread and some sort of bread in a ball shape, lol. They turned hard in one day, do I wasn't able to eat it.There's might be others in the same position as me that are too embarrassed to mention it.I'm not complaining ar all. You are a life savor.”
“I had a wonderful visit to the Theosophical Society in America. After watching so many of their videos on Youtube it was very fulfilling to finally enjoy the grounds, visit the library, and watch a presentation in the auditorium. I so enjoyed the kind people I met and the positive intent I found throughout this visit. I'll definitely be back!”
“We went on Raptor Day, so parking was $20/car (usually free). It was money well spent, and also knowing the funds are going to help with conservation. The staff/volunteers were so knowledgeable and friendly, and spent time answering all our questions. It is also a beautiful area to hike around, with some great spots for photos.”
“Super friendly staff. It is a little small but organized and everything they put out is in good condition. You can't beat the prices! I love this thrift store. It is definitely a favorite of mine!”
“Since 1988, I've experienced profound generosity and wrap-around social services with resources to meet every need of my family! I've never met better stewards of goodness.”
“I have been working with Amrit and Faith for roughly a month or two now and have only positive things to say about both! I worked with a therapist years ago and it was such a terrible experience that I never thought I would try it again. After getting to my lowest mental health point, I knew it was time to reach out for help and so I did but was very nervous due to my previous experience. Both Amrit and Faith have made me feel hopeful, heard, and treated me with nothing but kindness, respect, and care. I finally feel I am on track to my best self and I owe them so much credit. They are giving me the tools I need to get through this and to continue on a good path. The clinic was also understanding of my recent back surgery and was able to accommodate me with having tele visits with both! I would HIGHLY recommend them.”
“The TheosoFest Was A Great Experience Once Again to Rub Shoulders With Others Who Are Investigating The Wonders of The Universe. Thank YOU Theosophical Society of America for Hosting THIS Forum.Playground: It Is Attached to The School.Restrooms: Yes. Indoors for Visitors.”

“Waltz, fox trot, cha cha. rumba and swing music is played at every monthly dance party. A variety of other dance music is played as well for the more advanced dancers. When not dancing, it’s easy to meet and chat with friendly people who share your interest in dancing. Water and snacks are provided at no extra charge. The dance floor is huge. There’s plenty of space in the center of the room for couples who prefer not to progress around the outer part of the room in waltz and fox trot.”
“Volunteering at AHF has been one of the most rewarding experiences of my life. I love the flexibility of when to volunteer, the community of volunteers, and of course, the chance to help the dogs and cats in their time of need. Our country needs to do better to ensure no animal (or human) experiences neglect or abuse, and volunteering here is one step in the right direction to create a better world for us all.”
“This is a wonderful donation center! The staff are talented and friendly, and everything was clean and efficient. I have never enjoyed donating blood before, but the exceptional staff actually made it really fun. I will definitely be donating here again in the future.”
