We recently lost my Dad, he was unable to make medical decisions for himself however had signed up…read moreto be an organ donor on his own. So I wanted to honor his wishes Gift of Hope made this the most awful experience, overnight my Dad developed complications and his removal from intubation sooner was my wish as to not have my Dad suffer. Gift Of Hope stopped any movement on the removing the intubation until "they" were ready. The team hovered outside the door to sweep in like vultures with the hope that my Dad would pass within 120 minutes. With their leader having the worst body language and compassion of someone in that type of position. I am grateful to say my Dad didn't pass in time to donate, I think he could hear and feel how angry my whole family was at the situation we thought was going to be a good thing. If you are thinking about organ donation this has made me second guess this decision for myself and any family member's that I may be in charge of making medical decisions for.

They have been dismissive, won't transfer me to the correct person or schedule an appointment to speak with a board member on why I can't receive a written response with detailed explanation on how we can't go further, Tonya constantly kept saying this was pending litigation & didn't ask any questions on the documents sent to her that showed that I have a large sum of money coming my way that will help me pay my rent from that point on, this grant is for emergencies & everything I sent was never looked at or questioned on the severity of the emergency

They do what they do with love and to be a light in the world even during the darkest and most challenging of times. I have volunteered at the center in Northbrook and for their annual Comfort Dog Conference. The staff, a small but mighty team, are caring and humble in their service to others. The comfort dog program is like no other, bringing these well-trained, well-behaved animals into situations where people need healing. I feel it's a very worthwhile organization to support with donations and to be involved with. Thank you all for the amazing work you are doing. The world needs more organizations like this.

A not so fantastic organization, from my experience they would accept a nice leather…read morerocker/recliner without any scratches or tears. The said that they wouldnt accept it because is had some worn areas on it. Really? Let's say that that the truth for them then perhaps expand your business to an area where you don't have so many elitist. Where young families are starting out and can get comfortable, quality and yes a little worn furniture at a resonable price. This just isn't a one off with me look at some of the other responses. Never again will I donate anything to such and ungrateful organization. Last thing, let say that they have to use such discretion because they would have more furniture than they could store. Well anything that's been there more than 3 month have a free day where needy families in the community could go to and get help. In other word be creative and not so selective.

But after recently learning of this non-profit organization called Sharing Connections, those lazy days are over. A fantastic organization that does so much good in the community. Sharing Connections provides furniture and household items for low-income families, helping them make their houses or apartments feel like homes. Most of these families are coping with a major crisis such as domestic violence, homelessness, job loss, or a financial crisis. This is an opportunity for community members to show gratitude for their own blessings by helping someone who could use a little extra help. Because they respect the dignity of the families they serve, they want to give them furniture they'd be proud to have in their homes. This means that they only accept items that have been gently used. Items that are not soiled or broken. I recently assembled dressers that were provided by financial donations to Sharing Connections. A great way for anyone to spend their time. There are lots of ways to help. --your money, your unused belongings, or even just your time.

"Send a smile, Give a hug, All day long you will be loved!"…read more This is how I feel about not only random but flat out acts of kindness. During these crazy times where the economy is pretty much in the can (but it's lifting), people are negative about the weight of bills and having to work 50+hrs a week. All it takes is a home cooked meal to put a smile back on someone's face. Food holds a huge importance, I cannot even imagine not enjoying a meal and savoring every bite from start to finish, let alone sitting at my table without any food to accompany the grumble of my stomach. The Humanitarian Service Project is here for the people, without questions or obligations they are looking out for those in need and those willing to help out in a compassionate way. Not only are the staff extremely warm and welcoming, but are pleased and excited that there is still some good in the world and want to help someone out. Down or not down. For the Holiday Meals Program, you sign up to make and deliver meals on a monthly basis to a person in the community. What you make is basically up to you and your client. For me, because it's just me and I love cooking I took up two folks and decided to go all out. As if they could expect less, it's bigger and better in the land of Morgantown. Anyhoo, I spent a full day of cooking food I haven't cooked in ages (my house smells of country fried chicken...and I don't eat meat : )....) I placed together a full meal from salad starters to a light pumpkin bread dessert for both of the people I cooked for and delivered the goods with a generous smile. Walking away with an incredible appreciation for people and the heartfelt conversations you can take away from someone in the matter of 20 minutes to 2 hours, knowing it's all over the acceptance of food. From my table to yours, many thanks to the Humanitarian Service Project for creating this program. I cannot wait for this month....and know that I will be cooking for these two lovely people outside of the obligations of the project.
