I had the opportunity to volunteer at the Solano Food Bank via Kaiser Permanente…read more First let me say, WOW! What an operation. Upon driving up you can't help but notice that their building is HUGE! It's as big as a Costco! Tons of trailers were docked getting filled up by the many volunteers. They even had a Amazon trailer at the loading/unloading dock. There were approximately 30+ volunteers. We all gathered at the picnic tables inside the warehouse. Coffee, Tea, and snacks were provided - nice touch. We all worked together to load many boxes of food that were sent on a rolling conveyor belt with volunteers all along it. I was a team of 2 that stacked the boxes on multiple pallets before a forklift driver whisked them away. It was so awesome to be apart of. If you ever have a chance to volunteer please do so.

Where the hungry, the homeless and immigrants are treated with decency and respect in a clean,…read moreopen, welcoming environment. They provide food, books, classes, wealth of resources, diapers, wipes, gas cards at times, toiletries, pet food at times. People will also bring in small items for free/donate and display them on the tables--first come, first serve. I have left entertainment, clothes, shoes, hygiene care items, luggage totes, blankets, kitchen wares, pet supplies over the years on the tables--things are gone almost instantly. They have a lovely children's waiting room. They host events, fundraisers, drives, social activities for donors and clients throughout the year, especially treating clients well on holidays and back to school. They have an indoor library and outdoor book library stand--take books, leave books. Free to take. ***Please donate pet food! Diapers! Wipes! Tampons and pads!***

I walked in unsure of what to do or who to talk to. Within seconds, people were directing me to go to the line and get some free chili, and another person was trying to get me to take some free pastries. I wish this happened everywhere I went, but I digress. You can come here to get a free meal, apparently no questions asked, which is really cool. I didn't get any food, as I ate right before coming over, but I wish I had at least tried the food. A really good organization for anyone looking for a meal and resources for jobs, community events, ect... They have locations throughout Contra Costa County (Antioch, Oakley, Bay Point, Pittsburg, and the location I visited, Martinez). Be sure to stop by!

It honestly breaks my heart to have to give this place a negative review. I had such high hopes in…read morethe beginning. As someone who is newly out after years of religious trauma, they were who I turned to first. I had wanted to volunteer there. I received no response even though I reached out on several occasions. When I tried to sign up for women of the rainbow, it was questioned why someone my age would need their help. I was told they were not a dating service. I wish I never would have gone there. It's hard knowing that this was my first attempt at belonging and I was so horribly rejected. I really hate to say this, but I would say queer women 25 to 49 should steer clear of this place. Especially if you are overweight and nuerodivergent. There has to be a safe place for us. I'm still looking for my place, but it's for sure not here.

So, six years ago, I stopped by this place and they rejected me, saying there's nothing available…read morenow for me. I'm not interested in forcing myself on anyone, so I just left. Six years later (2025), I went by to post a 3x5 card and I was told that I needed to register, which meant I would get emails about events they are holding. Seemed reasonable I guess, and I was hoping the atmosphere had improved, so I registered. I made the mistake of attending two of their senior womens meetings. These meetings are supposed to be open to anyone in the community. While the first was okay, but the second was horrible. At the second one, a new attendee, a lesbian, who seemed in a bad mood, started on a tirade against transgender people. Five minutes of bile and hate later, I was hoping someone would object, but to my amazement the other two lesbians in the group there encouraged her and supported her. I should have objected but I felt the hatred expressed was too overwhelming and I decided there just was no advantage to objecting and I just left. I did not believe anything I said would be received well as I there was three of them and one of me, and they were all in agreement As far as I am concerned this place is a bastion of hate and bigotry and I have no interest being anywhere near them.
