“Wow! I was patron of ACY when it started over ten years ago. I supported them, brought friends, and was inspired by the project and classes. I just visited the newer center for the first time. It's huge, beautiful, and there's ample parking (go around back). There's areas to gather inside and out and plenty of nice retail items. The class I took was excellent, the teacher was highly qualified and lovely. I'm so delighted at the growth and grateful for all the contributions people have made. I will be back soon!”
“Today was my first time trying to donate platelets. Although my veins didn't cooperate, there were many people participating. Joshua was the one who took care of me. They provide warm blankets, a tv to watch, and snacks afterwards. If you are able, please make an appointment with the American Red Cross in Asheville to donate platelets. You can save a life.”
“Veronica and the team at The Collider are top notch. They provide a high quality experience with impressive technology integration for meetings and events. The location is in the heart of downtown Asheville. It’s nearby everything that this mountain town has to offer.”
“I was referred to this organization by Helpmate. They got me into a vehicle within 3 months after applying.. it is a great vehicle and I still have it 2 years later! This is a great organization that helps people get back on their feet!”
“Wonderful folks working here and interesting work. I left feeling inspired and creatively invigorated for the new year. Will definitely be back in to enjoy the book collection.”
“So glad this place exists! Malcolm and Steven were super friendly and knowledgeable. I'm very happy with my new (used/rebuilt) bike and happy I was able to donate my old bike to the shop to further their cause of helping get kids out mountain biking who otherwise wouldn't be able to. Lots of bike parts available for cheap, like seats, clothing, accessories, etc. I will always check here first for any bike needs!”
“Boasting a compliment of surprisingly friendly staff people, the GoodWill career center is definitely and certainly worth giving a try, even if only just ? once.
But, what can you do here, one may ask yourself? If a job or even a career is what you need, then you are heading to the right place! This regional career center is conveniently located right next to the local DMV! And, by applying for jobs within the career center, then heading off to the DMV in order to learn how to drive or make use of their other motor vehicle related services, you may very well be setting yourself up to gain a slight or significant measure of success.
Please be sure to note a small disclaimer... The GoodWill career center cannot guarantee the successfulness of any of their clients being hired on for any job or career. The probability of gaining a paying job depends on the efforts put in by each individual, even if they do not utilize the services offered by GoodWill career center.
Above all other forms of advice, please be safe, and happy, jovial job hunting!”

“I have been a member of the YWCA for 2 years. There is a strong sense of belonging and community. The staff and instructors genuinely care about their members, giving individualized attention to those with special needs. The gym equipment is state of the art and is kept clean and well maintained. The YWCA helps me along my journey of health and wellness. Thank you for empowering me to be my better self.”
“I have stayed there for the past 6 months is a wonderful facility the staff is very helpful and they really care about your well-being.. I have recommended it to a few people have taken my advice and they too are very happy because they're off the street and have a warm bed and hot food... the Salvation Army is a godsend and they do good work.”

“I absolutely love Goodwill.im there every weekend.. the retail store, and the one besides it, i mostly love going through the bins.. because you never know what you're going to find, the only thing I don't like is you can't always find the other pear to a shoes...there could be a lot better system then what they have... put all the shoes together, clothes with clothes etc etc it would also be easier for the employees to do it that way.. same thing with the retail store.. put t-shirts with t-shirts long sleeves with long sleeves, shoes with shoes and appliances with appliances... just make it more organized.. plus it would make more money for helping the resources of Goodwill... Everyone says they don't go to Goodwill because they're not organized.. and that's truly a shame because I find amazing things there.. I Mean even stuff with tags on them... but YOU shouldn't have to go to a store and look for hours. just wish they would make it more convenient for buyers.... #moreorganize”
“The manager, Connie and the other staff were amazing. I’m a frequent Goodwiller, I misplaced my refund card and they helped me look for it and we’re so patient and they’re always so nice and hard-working. Every time I go there. I also always find some hidden gems there”
“I love thrifting and found a great blue sweater and a Guns n' Roses tshirt for the grand total of $8. The clothing selection is very large and you can find some cool items. Will be back”
“Such a unique spot with an amazing story. We popped by and visited with the cats for 30 minutes then got some cute trinkets on our way out. Both ladies were so friendly and the love that they have for every single cat is evident. Had we not been on a road trip, I have no doubt in my mind we would have applied for adoption. As a mini panther owner myself, you can tell how loved and well cared for these cats are. This was honestly one of the highlights of our trip and I hope all of those sweet kitties find their forever homes. I will definitely be back if we are in the area again.”
