Parking lot of my nightmares, thrift store of my dreams…read more The store is always packed, parking is always full. It can be stressful just getting into the building but i can ALWAYS find something at genesis. Some things can be a little over priced but for the most part you are getting a great value for decent quality items. Endless selection of dresses, shoe selection is a hit or miss but i can usually find a good pair of shoes for work. Tons and tons of jeans, Madewell, American eagle, gap, etc. The front table is not something to miss either! Knick knacks galore

The housing are basically like hotel rooms with 2 queen beds and bathroom. You have to clean up after yourself while you stay there. They have communal living rooms and play spaces for the children, a big courtyard, splash pad, communal dining room and kitchen. They also provide 3 meals a day. I am very thankful for all the volunteers and workers there.

Providing meals and lodging for families going thru difficult and often finically crippling medical issues. Many families here would have no other place to go for the weeks or months that their loved one(s) receive the medical attention they need. This facility is not just for those with limited recourses it is for everyone. if not for the folks here like we would be spending hours a day traveling instead of being at our sons' bedside at the hospital. It is truly humbling. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts! Jon and Jennifer Joyce

For starters, this is my dedicated, neighborhood thrift store! The first time I went, I was sceptical, because it was so packed! I am talking, it felt like everyone in Dallas frequents this location! It is a drop off/donation center, so it makes sense! But omg! I am so glad I did that day! I have since been back many times, especially on Wednesday because all the clothes and bags are half off! As for the staff, everyone is always so happy and kind! I can go in and walk around for hours, having individual convos with each employee! It is the best, truly, and makes the experience 10x better! Finally, the clothes! Like I said, Wed is the best day because everything is half off! I have found some amazing pieces! Some of which are name brand for very low prices! For example, I found 3 REAL Coach bags, and I got 2 of them for under 40$! A steal in my books! I def recommend stopping in to browse!

He told me to hurry because he had 40 other homes he had to visit.. he did not pick up everything as requested and rushed to give me the paper.

He also acted as if he couldn't help me move the headboard. Very rude customer service

They will celebrate a 100-year history in 2020!! Originally established in 1920 as the Dallas…read moreSilent Club (and incorporated in 1949). In 1970, they were renamed to the Dallas Association of the Deaf, Inc. (DAD). Made up of nearly 1,500 members, they are here to serve the needs of the D/deaf and hard of hearing (HOH) people in the Dallas, Texas vicinity, and their goal is to preserve their Deaf heritage, culture and American Sign Language (ASL). Although I am hearing, my intent is to write a YELP review for those who are curious about this organization and would like to know more about it from another source. Yes, my daughter and I are hearing and we are always looking for Deaf events that encourage us to join them and learn more about Deaf culture and help improve our ASL. With deep research I found DAD, but with more exposure, DAD could reach a larger audience and increase their numbers. Whether you are D/deaf, HOH, or hearing you are welcomed here. Membership for DAD is $10.00 annually. They are only open 1st and 3rd SATURDAY unless otherwise indicated on the website. We recently attended a wonderful event hosted by DAD called, the 18th Annual Dallas Bass Association of the Deaf (DBAD) luncheon. We were not required to have a membership to attend this event. It was a day-long event, $10.00 pp that included your lunch and it was held from noon until 5 pm. There were approximately 50+ people there, only four of us were hearing. We stayed for four hours. One by one we met and signed with nearly everyone there. We really enjoyed their personal stories about where they were from, their hardships and happiness. We definitely learned more about Deaf culture, and we were encouraged to tell others about DAD and to come back. See my pictures :) The best source for finding events with DAD is their Facebook page. Search: Dallas Association of the Deaf, Inc. When you arrive at the DAD building it is very intimidating. If you are not familiar with the area, like us, you are not confident that you are in the right place. This is how much we trusted Google, lol. The building is not branded with any kind of "DAD" signage and the physical numbers on the building are nearly gone. There is a door that faces the street and another door that faces the parking lot. We did not understand which door to enter. We drove around the building twice before we were able to figure it out. FYI it is the door facing the parking lot. However, once you step through the doors the environment was warm and inviting. The bar is to the left and it is set up for guests over 21+ who enjoy alcohol, however, you can order anything you want. The prices are more than reasonable. The bar area is very large, visually inviting, cool lights are strung above your head and there are a few game tables nearby like pool and poker. The banquet area is to the right and it is set up with oversized round tables that make it easy to sign to anyone around you. The food was catered in and potluck style. There was fried chicken, catfish, french fries, creamed corn, cucumber salad, cornbread as well as a table full of deserts. After four hours, we did not want to overstay our welcome so we politely visited each person to say goodbye. It took us another 30 minutes to say goodbye because we had made such great friends. I sincerely hope this YELP review was helpful and if you have any questions about DAD contact: info@dallasdeafclub.org
