    I didn't realize this was in the area until recently. Dropped off some donations and people were…read morefriendly and it was fast. Location is towards the end of a dead end street. Only thing to keep in mind is that at least right now, the website hours are a little contradictory, so double check before you go to drop off. I mentioned it to them, so they might be addressing it/getting it corrected. Donate if you can, everyone has a time in their life when they could use a helping hand.

    I am a Social Worker in Atlantic County. I gave an elderly lady a ride to the Food Pantry because…read moreher Case order was not available. It was the saddest thing. I have known this sweet lady for a long time and what I saw today, I would never imagine anyone should be so humiliated and treated like a child stealing I was there when she called at 10:09 this morning to ask if she could pick up some food items because I offered to drive her. Loud and clear she explained she did not go the Tuesday before Thanksgiving because her son had a procedure. A very nice lady who sounded like she recognized the voice, and told her that today we are open from 11:00 am to 12:30 and again this evening. She told her it's ok you could come anytime after your scheduled day. Politely and sweetly as I have known her she thanked her. I suggested we leave and drive there. The minute we pulled up a miserable-looking woman approached my vehicle and once again this sweet soft spoken elderly lady explained that she missed her day in November but called and was told to come. Out come both her hands up in the air "DO YOU HAVE AN ORANGE CARD? Repeated without allowing this woman to answer. My God!!! The woman barely tried telling her No I have a yellow. She is now off the rails and wailing at this poor woman telling her NOOOOO you need an orange card. If I was not there I would never would have believed what I saw. She raised her voice and finally, the woman got out of my car and told her "Madam people come here are broken why do you talk like this she continued harassing the elderly woman about an orange card. Why talk to her like an imbecile and not allow her to explain he called and was told to come in. As though that was not enough drama to give food to the needy she then continued her Pentagon ranting to me about the darn orange card. Would not leave me alone and I stopped hearing her. I am so sad and humiliated for this lady who I know hardly goes there and gives anyone what she has, I drove to Walmart and bought her some food. NO ONE IS WORTH GETTING HUMILIATED TO GET FOOD THAT IS DONATED IN THE FIRST PLACE. She cried the rest of the day and quietly said I rather die of hunger but I will never return there. Do you people have any idea what this woman does for our Veteran's Shelter, the homeless on the streets of Camden, what she has done for 18 years in Kensington? You are not paying for the food you give out. Well I and my family decided we will get food to her. She does not deserve this treatment. She is there max 4 times a year. I am totally disgusted.

    This agency has moved and is now located at 537 Nicholson Road, opposite the Walmart, Applebee's,…read moreacme complex. It's a huge building with lots of senior services including an adult daycare, Home Health Aides, very reasonably cost senior transportation, and a host of other programs that they offer to low income senior citizens in Camden and Burlington county. I'm very fortunate my mother lives in their catchment area as she needs the medical transportation. We've just begun this relationship with this organization and I've been impressed with how they manage to provide services even though they are operating on such a low-budget. I was happy to make a donation to them as I could see it goes directly into helping seniors like my mother. The staff there is so pleasant to work with and are dedicated and do such a good job. I will say however that because of the low budget and staffing and the reduced number of hours with the medical transport you have to make the calls in on time in the morning to schedule and it's required two weeks in advance for scheduling medical appointments and you have to call the day before to confirm every appointment. With more money I'm sure they can become more and more automated in this process or at least have more vans and more staff available. My mother said that so far the drivers were very nice and they were on time and that they drive good too. And that is high praise from my mother.

    I wouldn't call it a business but, since it's here I will review it. Anything less than five stars…read morewould be criminal. This organization transcends the usual And accepted use of Yelp. The ol' where do wanna eat tonight Brain? Same place we eat every night pinky. Home. So what does this organization do? They help people that are housing insecure and working poor out of poverty. They provide places for people to stay and help them find work. "Each year, Philadelphia homeless outreach organizations engage more than 6,000 individuals living on the street, in cars, abandoned buildings, train/bus stations, and other places not meant for human habitation." So donate. Or if you see any events supporting this organization please go. Care about your neighbors.

    Project H.O.M.E. has a great mission statement: http://www.projecthome.org/about/, "The mission of…read morethe Project H.O.M.E. community is to empower adults, children, and families to break the cycle of homelessness and poverty, to alleviate the underlying causes of poverty, and to enable all of us to attain our fullest potential as individuals and as members of the broader society. We strive to create a safe and respectful environment where we support each other in our struggles for self-esteem, recovery, and the confidence to move toward self-actualization. " I started giving $5 once in a while to Project H.O.M.E., especially in the winter time, when someone would walk into the convenience store begging for a cigarette, or buying a potato.... where I was dropping $4 for a Kombucha and you know, $5 can go a long way. They make it easy to donate online http://www.projecthome.org/donate/, so you can do it often - you don't have to hurl over $100 at a time. They also have a great website dedicated to telling you all about their work, and publish a newsletter about the people they help. Men, women and children really have a voice, and these people really care. This is a great place to do your holiday shopping. This year because of the snow (it would have cost $100 to FedEx just before the holidays), and total lack of feeling like shopping for another craptastic gift, I opted to send my family members a note that said I gave such and such amount in your honor. Project HOME shoots you an e-mail immediately, so you can gift very quickly and easily. I think my mom was mad at first, but then she really loved it, and I bet next year I'll get something similar - instead of two pounds of See's candies... ugh. Also, they are always looking for volunteers, and have job positions open all the time!
