I came here to volunteer, and to my surprise, there were even younger kids participating. I learned that the minimum volunteer age is 10 years old. Some students were volunteering for school service hours, while others came through different companies and organizations. We joined the second shift from 1pm-4pm. The session started shortly after 1pm with a briefing and task assignments from the group leader. All tasks were explained clearly. The leaders checked on us throughout the shift to make sure we were doing okay and to see if anyone had concerns. Halfway through the shift, we had a 15-minute break, and one of the leaders brought ice cream to celebrate a volunteer's birthday and shared it with everyone. I thought it was a meaningful way to celebrate a birthday while helping a good cause. We actually finished around 3:30pm, and our shift completed: - 5,451 lbs of food packed - 474 boxes prepared for the "No Student Goes Hungry" program supporting students from elementary school through college in Sacramento County. Everyone was very friendly and accommodating, and the facility was clean and organized. Restroom: clean, bright, and decent. If you are interested in volunteering, check out their website and register in advance.

Although not fun, there is one huge benefit to moving...being able to sort through a bunch of…read moremisplaced and forgotten stuff. Within all of this stuff, was a bunch of new and lightly used clothing. In the past I have donated clothing to my local Goodwill Express. However, I did some reflection and realized that all of the clothing that I donated was being sold for profit. Going forward, my intention was to donate to an organization that receives the donation(s) and distributes them to underprivileged individuals/families free of charge. Some research led me to the Sacramento Food Bank & Family Services. Upon calling to verify their hours (Tuesday, Thursday, Friday, 10am-1pm and Wednesday, 4pm-7pm), I gathered all of the clothing and hit the road on a mission to make a difference. Upon arrival, I was greeted by a Sacramento Food Bank employee who eagerly began to load my clothing donations onto a cart. Since a lot of the clothing consisted of dress pants and dress slacks, he proceeded to inform me about a program called "Job Smart Clothing." Job Smart Clothing is a program within Sacramento Food Bank that provides career appropriate apparel for underprivileged individuals interviewing for employment or currently employed. How cool is that? I'm not a representative for Sacramento Food Bank & Family Services. However, I will say that they provide an awesome service to the community, and that a little donation goes a long way (individuals who benefit from their services often leave with 15-20 pieces of clothing per visit). Before you throw away that piece of clothing that you think is out of style or doesn't quite hug your curves the way that they used to, think about donating it to the Sacramento Food Bank & Family Services!

Then I found Sacramento Valley Wild Life Services. They charged $495 as initial service fee that according to the agreement covered inspection, trap set up and removal. They sent a young woman (looked like a teenager). she barely talked, didn't inspect our property, and put 2 cages in random places (we have more than 25 tunnels along our foundation). in 10 days nothing has been trapped. The only things that they caught were ants, lots of ants. so now we don't only have a squirrel problem, we have an ant problem. I have to add that these people charge $145 for each squirrel they catch. We regret spending those $500 ...

On December 23rd, my fiancé brought a cast-iron pot to the counter because it had no tag and simply asked about the price. The employee working that day accused him of removing the tag himself, claimed he had done this before, and said he had been a problem in the past. This was completely false. When my fiancé calmly tried to explain that there must be some confusion, he was asked to leave. Being accused of dishonesty without evidence was upsetting and unacceptable, especially after being loyal customers who supported the store with both purchases and donations. Businesses should value their customers and treat them with basic respect and fairness. Because of this experience, we no longer feel comfortable shopping here, which is a huge bummer. I hope management takes this seriously and addresses how customers are treated. (I never leave reviews)

We see their genuine care reflected in everything they do for the children. The center provides fresh, nutritious meals prepared by staff, a well-structured daily routine with nap time, plenty of learning opportunities, and fun playtime. These routines help build the structure young children need as they prepare for kindergarten. Shiloh Arms goes above and beyond to meet every child's unique needs, giving parents peace of mind knowing their little ones are in the best hands. Rowena, the school coordinator, is exceptional--always hands-on, assisting in classrooms, and engaging with the children daily. The teachers are communicative, kind, and truly amazing at what they do. The school also encourages parent involvement and keeps the year exciting with activities like summer water play, holiday festivities, birthday celebrations, and more. My daughter absolutely loves attending Shiloh Arms. She often talks about her teachers and friends with such joy. We couldn't ask for a better place for her to be while mom and dad are at work. I highly recommend Shiloh Arms Development Center for parents with children ages 2-5. If you're looking for a nurturing and enriching environment, go check them
