Community Services/Non-Profits in Whitehall, PA

“I go to their Thursday night bingo that is held in the upstairs hall. The kitchen has hot and cold food and drink. The people who run the bingo are very nice. They also sell and play pull tab games during bingo.”

“I have been a contributor to PK, and a volunteer in the cat and dog rooms for 2 years. I couldn't imagine a shelter that cares more for their animals, or cares for them better. We have only 3 paid managers, all of them very well qualified and professional. The rest of us are all volunteers, and all of us love the animals in our shelter and work hard to take care of their physical and emotional needs. We recently renovated our very old building, (the former Zimmerman's Market for long-term local residents), enabling us to provide even better care for our wards, and modernize our veterinary clinic. No matter how well we care for them, dogs especially become depressed and anxious the longer they remain in a shelter environment, so once/week I take a dog on an adventure to a local state park, giving them the best day of their lives. It's the best and most rewarding thing I've ever done, bar none. It provides them with the opportunity to just go out and be a dog, and gives their emotions a lift. If you are thinking of adopting a pet, please give one of our dogs, cats, bunnies or guinea pigs a look. As one of our posters says, "You won't change the world by adopting a shelter animal, but for that one animal their life will be changed forever". As a side note, we have thoroughly investigated the very negative review posted by Brett W, and no one at PK knows this person, and there was no cat euthanized at PK under these circumstances. We'd appreciate very much if Brett W would contact us to clarify our understanding.”

“Prices are sometimes really off but if you look not so hard you will find good deals. I got a lot of items for 99 cents because the tag colors on them were 50 percent off that day. I had to use the bathroom and waited kind of long for them to unlock it and the workers seem underpaid and unhappy for some reason but other than that I like it here.”
