    Shelter that helps homeless families to stay for 120 days for Free, to get you back on your feet…read more BUT they don't help everyone, they're very selective regardless if you have children and homeless, so it's a 50/50 chance. They don't really care about the people. You have to fill out an application, & you'll be interviewed based on it. They can provide basic needs like: food, clothing, diapers/wipes, & hygiene products, to the city's they cover. (Cities they cover are: Claremont, Rancho Cucamonga, Ontario, Pomona, Montclair, & Upland).

    I adore this little thrift shop! Located on Foothill, A Lot of Good Thrift Store exists on its own…read moreplaza. There is parking in the front of store, but it usually gets taken rather quickly especially between 2 PM to 4 PM on weekdays. You can also park in the back, near the area where donations are dropped off. I usually come on Tuesdays, where discounts usually don't apply to me. I like Wednesday's where there are student/teacher discounts. To my luck, I went on a spin the wheel day today! You get to spin the wheel after your purchase for an opportunity to win items or get a discount. I like browsing their toys, vintage items, and office supplies. I usually get very good second hand items such as staplers, hole punchers, DVDs, shoes, and board games. This location is actually my favorite place to shop for vintage film cameras (I'm afraid to post this because my fellow Yelp friends will be coming more to grab them before I do!). Today, I bought a good pocket minolta film camera, some stuffed animals, and some office supplies. The cashiers are sweethearts and are willing to help you look at items! They also have an extensive amount of used clothes and furniture. It's definitely my favorite thrift store and will continue to be so.

    I've been to A Lot of Good Thrift Store several times to drop off different items, and I always…read morehave a great experience. The staff is kind, helpful, and professional, and the donation process is very convenient. They are open Tuesday through Saturday and closed Sunday and Monday. If you're dropping off donations, you can simply drive up to the donation area, and they will take the items from your car and provide you with a receipt. That makes the process so easy. Today I met Maria, the store manager, and she provided excellent customer service. She also shared helpful information about where some of the donated clothing and items go, including libraries and different organizations they partner with. It was a great learning experience and made me feel even better about donating here. I would definitely encourage others to bring donations here or stop by and shop to see what they have. It's a friendly, community-focused thrift store with great customer service.

    One of the cutest stores ever!…read more One of the artists (Nellie Le; check out her work!) I follow on IG mentioned Craft Collective as being a new business that was supporting local artists, and I had to find a way to make a visit. Located in Ontario, it's right around the corner of Logan's Candies, and down the street from Unique Cafe and Newsboy Books. I was able to do street parking without too much issue, but I also visited on a weekday (Friday) versus a weekend. But it seems like there should be enough parking even on a weekend! There are still some displays being setup (I walked in when they were building a paper mache piece in one of their windows), but there is a LOT to see when you come by. There are various artists on display now, and more to come! I loved seeing all of the amazing colors and the creativity of folks, and I loved seeing some of the artists that I already follow (including @supercoolspyclub). After making a visit here, there were definitely more artists that I now had to follow on IG! You WILL find something for everyone at this shop. Between the stickers, keychains, art prints, small art pieces, large art pieces, onesies, t-shirts, etc., there are gift options everywhere. Highly, highly recommend to make a visit, as what I took pictures of today may not be available months from now. I was also able to meet the owners Eva and Jonas! Lovely couple, and we were able to chat about the artists and the joy of art. I can see its future as being a gallery/store, and it's such a nice space to really display art, or do workshops (took a picture of their t-shirt printer!). Prices are variable depending on the artist! Keep in mind that all work take time and effort, but some take a looooot of hours, and the prices should reflect that amount of time. Definitely will want to come back!

    I can't believe I passed by this place so many times without going in! I always love grabbing…read morelittle trinkets or art pieces whenever I'm at festivals or cons, and so this place was just absolute heaven for me. There's all sorts of prints and handmade pieces and just really cute designs. Worst thing I can say about this place is that they're probably about to start getting a huge chunk of my paycheck going forward. If you like browsing Etsy or you're the type of person who goes to conventions just for the booths that sell in the exhibition hall, you will absolutely LOVE this place.

    Friends of Upland Animal Shelter was a wonderful experience from beginning to end. I recently…read moreadopted my puppy, and Reina provided exceptional support throughout the entire process. We feel so fortunate to have found such an amazing addition to our family. If you are considering adoption, I highly recommend it -- you won't regret it. Be sure to ask for Reina, as she truly goes above and beyond to help every step of the way. Thank you again! We absolutely love our Maverick.

    I can only review on the adoption process. Before coming here, always look at their website (DO NOT…read moreuse google for the times). Walk-ins come after 12pm. Anything before 12pm is by appointment only. So, I arrived at 12pm with my child to look around. There was no intention to adopt until I asked about a dog who caught my eye online to check if they are available. This is their adoption process: 1. You will NOT most likely adopt the same day you come as a walk-in based on: if you have other pets or people in your house hold, you own or rent, and others. This is to ensure that adopted animals are not rehomed nor returned to shelter. 2. If there are other pets or people in the home, TELL THEM. This is for yours and the animals' safety! Think if it like a pre-screening prior to the meet and greet. 3. While the dog is "adoptable", if they have an appointment made already, you will NOT be able to see the dog. Essentially, it creates a "wait list"/ first come first serve process. 4. Once you make an appointment, no one else can see the animal until your appointment for the meet and greet. At the meet and greet, you decide if you want to adopt the animal. Then paper work, fees, etc. I was very upfront and honest with the shelter staff about myself and family. This allowed the staff to help me decide which dog would be more likely to fit in my home (and which were actually available for appointment meet and greet.). I was unsure about the dog I scheduled for meet and greet, but many of the staff, techs, and many others said many wonderful things about the dog I wanted to meet. And EVERYONE WAS RIGHT. I nearly cried tears of joy when I saw him, but I had to stay calm for everyone's sake and safety. When I got 1-1 time with him, I was in love. He did look hurt when the volunteer took him back inside his kennel bc he thought he was coming home; I decided to have the shelter neuter him before I took him home. While this process takes time and lots of patience, remember that the main goal is to have both the shelter animal and family (humans and and current animal pets) live harmoniously and happily in a match that ensures a forever home for pets and for you.
