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).

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.

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.

While checking through the shelves, Frank, who worked in that area, asked me if he could help.

After several return visits later, he advised me that it hadn't shown up yet. A few weeks later I found it at home and let them know. I was very appreciative that Frank had been kind enough to keep an eye out for me.

The vegetables are literally throbbing with good vibes. Best of all, you get a seasonally different spread which exercises your cooking creativity. The lovely ladies who run this place tucked behind a church off Foothill Boulevard, have nurtured a wonderful California native plants garden that blooms with pops of color sequentially throughout the year. Their organization supports many local needy families with education, clothes, and financial assistance. The architecture itself is a contrast to euro-anglo-Claremont, and showcases indigenous mud-based architecture. The bilingualism of this organization demonstrates the riches of California and especially its hardworking and community-spirited Latino peoples. In contrast to the contrived, rugged individualism and commercialism of anglo-America , it feels welcoming and warm here. Bring cash to pay on site.

I say this because she just left me in the front saying the guys would help me. To her credit she did seem pretty busy however first impressions.... Didn't see any helpers so I went back again to the office part and a very friendly and polite young man sitting at one of the desks led me to a walk in fridge and immediately I fell in love. Basil, green beans cilantro eggplant Swiss chard kale turnips carrots guava wow. There was way more variety then that I could not recall them all. All grown right there on the property and cultivated with a love for healthy eating and respect. I was thrilled to have landed there. Fruits and veggies and herbs are not cheap in the grocery store and as I am coming to learn are often genetically modified and coated with who knows what kind of chemicals and pesticides. I loved the fact in First of all the place is huge. There is a Methodist church in the front then you take a long winding road with some turns the property was beautiful and I had one of my dogs with me who was recently attacked by a much bigger dog and was clearly traumatized by the incident. Scared to go outside and body language spoke for him. Dog owners know how to read and recognize their pets To watch my sweet little soul mate excited to be outside sniffing everything so many types of plants and vegetation birds singing, butterflies and bumble bees, up and down a few paths we explored. The young man told me that I'm welcome to come back they are open Monday thru Friday and if I wanted to come everyday that would fine too I left with 2 grocery bags full of wholesome and healthy produce and my dog and I left with a little more pep in our step due to our adventure in nature at this incredible place.

Don't support a rescue that has an ignorant owner who thinks she is above other workers at other jobs. She threatened to get workers in trouble because they didn't have something she wanted to get. Very rude and entitled!!!

No one really understands how hard these rescues work for animals. To read comments like 'where is…read morethis place even at" is so disturbing. You act like you're going shopping for some commodity. Many rescues use fosters or don't want to list their location to protect the animals. Their job is to PROTECT the animals - and no I'm sorry, you will not all be the right home or qualify. So if you don't get the dog you wanted, you might be fully just absorbed in your own emotions but you are not the one doing the tireless work here for the animals. Royce has been helping animals for years! She like many other rescues are amazing, the real super stars and most people don't have any glimpse into what that daily hard work is like. It's a labor of love and it's to help animals.
