7-9-24 Drop Off Donations…read more Came here to drop off several home items and clothes. Note I had tried a couple times before forgetting they are closed on Sunday and Mondays. On this visit I went inside with my donations and made several trips from the car. I was offered assistance but it wasn't necessary as it truly was a short walk from my car. Many people were dropping off items to donate. From what I could see really nice stuff. I originally came here for some items from my home. But now I got everything I need as we downsized when we moved to the area. Definitely will be back with more donations soon.

We have no idea what was going on with the person who treated them poorly or what the organization was going through. I would suggest giving Bluffton Self Help a call to get the full story and not rely of someone's assumption.

The sign out front clearly stated donations were accepted from 10a to 4p. I came straight from Krogers with 2 full bags of canned meat products at 3:15. Self Help refused to answer the back door where donations are accepted. I drove to the front, found 2 young men loading a client's vehicle and suggested someone check the back doorbell since there had been no response when I rang twice. They informed me rudely they were NOT ACCEPTING DONATIONS PERIOD. I have concluded that despite numerous appeals in my community to "fill the pantry" that this food bank is NOT IN NEED therefore any donations will simply be sent to the pig farmer who collects their discards. DO NOT DONATE TO BLUFFTON SELF HELP.

DO NOT ADOPT FROM LOVEABLE PAWS RESCUE! This "rescue" used a 3rd party (Wagtopia) to monetize my…read moreadoption application information and my financial information was exploited as a result. When I explained my concerns to the "rescue" and they were dismissive of my concerns. Loveable Paws Rescue will absolutely use a 3rd party (Wagtopia) to monetize your data as well. They REQUIRE a "donation" to Wagtopia before you can even submit an adoption application. Each potential dog adoption requires a separate application and "donation" (application fee is not reimbursed if you choose not to adopt or if the dog you wanted to adopt has already been adopted). NOTE: Loveable Paws Rescue and Wagtopia have said that donations to Wagtopia are not tax deductible and the money DOES NOT GO TO CARING FOR SHELTER DOGS!!!! To make things even worse, the dogs at their "rescue" did not appear to be cared for very well - the dogs appeared underweight for their size and their living conditions did not seem adequate. Several dogs were without water on an adoption day! It made me seriously question how far the substandard the living conditions drop on non-adoption days. After reading some reviews of Loveable Paws Rescue where adopters ended up with dogs that tested positive for heartworms, I asked if the dog we were interested in adopting had already been spayed and if she has been tested for heartworms. The "rescue" refused to provide any medical information about the dog. In fact, they refused to tell me if the dog had even seen a vet while she was under their care. The dog in question was in their care for at least 3 months! That is ample time to know very basic medical information that all legitimate rescues should have about all animals under their care. To illustrate the lack of appropriate veterinary care, I included a post from Loveable Paws Rescue's Facebook page. THIS DOG DIED WHILE UNDER THE CARE OF LOVEABLE PAWS RESCUE! I think it is fairly obvious that this dog should have been under close veterinary care. While it is possible that the tumor might have been inoperable, not having the dog at an emergency clinic, directly under veterinary care following the rupture is inexcusable and shows their indifference towards the quality of life of the dogs under their care. When I inquired about the medical care given to special needs dogs like this dog, I was told that it was none of my business since it didn't apply to the dog we wanted to adopt and I needed to lower my expectations because "these are rescue dogs." There are many good rescues in the area, you do not need to support a "rescue" that will monetize your adoption application data, charge you for merely submitting an application, and then refuse to provide you with basic health information about dogs under their care. Any "rescue" that requires money to submit an application doesn't care about finding homes for dogs, they care about making money. Reputable rescue groups don't monetize data about adopters. Reputable rescues are eager to share information about their dogs; only questionable, shady "rescues" charge $600 adoption fees while refusing to provide veterinary information and ignore the fact some dogs are without water on adoption days. Please adopt from reputable rescues!

Ok, so, this past end-of-summer, I got stranded in HHI during the hurricane and lost everything: my…read morephone, car, wallet, all of it...gone. I was destitute and crying and in a really dark, dark place. I wish I could say that Deep Well made it all better, but THEY DID NOT. This place SUCKS. They did "help" me a bit by letting me shower there, ONCE, and giving me some "food", but other than that they very seriously ruined some things for me, FOR SURE. When I went there to get help and they were closed, I ended up meeting a young man just outside who worked with them and who lived "out back", aka had set up a tent in the woods behind this place. He was a nice guy, and we spoke at length about Jesus and work and how we both had come to be there. He eventually told me that he was "moving out" because he had finally saved up enough money and gotten himself an apartment! I congratulated him and asked what his plans were for his tent situation. He said he was just going to leave it there. I asked if he minded if I "moved in", being absolutely destitute and desperately in need of shelter. He said go right ahead. So I did, for a few nights. But then one day I "came home" to find the entire campsite had been cleared out! ALL my things, which were really his old things, except for a few clothes, some nice lotion I had scrapped money together to buy that was basically brand new, and this BEAUTIFUL candle a new island-friend had given me she had made HERSELF that I hadn't even burned yet because it was soooo nice, were GONE. I was DEVESTATED. If you've ever been homeless and without, if ANY of you stuff goes missing, let alone ALL OF IT, it feels like a DISASTER. So, I go inside this Deep Well place and inquire after my things. First of all, for a place that "helps people", these old, white ladies are pretty judgmental-seeming. They looked at me like I was trash and were not quick to help me at all. No one had any answers for me about my missing things or what had happened at all, and when I saw my car key on a desk, instead of just taking what was mine, I asked for it, like the polite young lady I can be. The woman was pretty weird about giving it back to me, asking what model car it was like I was CONNING her into giving me a random key for some nefarious purpose unbeknownst to any of us. It was very lame, disappointing, unChristian; and I must say, they had to have known this other person was living back in their woods for months before me! So, they had to have been ok with that. If they knew he had "moved out" and went to "clean up" his campsite, they surely would have seen that some woman was now living there. What did it cost them to just let me keep staying there?? The tents were hidden, bothering no one, and nothing had changed except I had "moved in". I guess they preferred that homeless person to this one??? I guess they don't like women?? I don't know, it just felt kinda personal... Also, my car key was pretty well hidden: they must have really searched for it, and then decided to save it??? :( Weird. Also, a lot of places on the island give fresh food to Deep Well and I NEVER, ONCE saw or was given anything fresh. It was a lot of peanut butter (for what???) and canned stuff (I had no can opener!!!) and, like, apple sauce. So... to WHOM and WHERE was this "fresh food" I was denied elsewhere, going??? In any event, "Deep Well Project" turned what was a disaster to me personally in MY life, into a SHAME for both them AND me AND Hilton Head in general. If I could give them no stars, I would. Pretty SHALLOW WELL, ladies. :(((((
