Awesome place, awesome people. I been myself started a non profit where I been giving out food to…read morethe homeless and offering supplies out of pocket along with my son since February this year. When I found out about this place through a lady who saw me passing out sandwiches, I couldn't help but extend a hand. So I called and spoke with Luis to see how I could be of assistance and find out about receiving food myself to pass out and this guy and Ms. Ludo were very informative. So me and my son got a rental, headed to the food pantry, and loaded the car up for a trip to the high desert! For those interested in helping this place will guide you every step of the way to make sure you got everything needed. From how to online guides, waiver forums, etc. They even have it mobile app friendly! Just make sure to start early if you're doing deliveries to people's houses so you can see where you're going and to beat the heat. Great bonding and learning experience for me and my son but not only that just a blessing there's a company likes this available to offer such services.

Recovery Road provides an abundance of harm reduction related resources, access to information,…read moremeetings, and sponsors for sobriety, including AA meetings and NA meetings held on every day of the week. They also provide boxes of food and there's no set dates or strict schedule times to access their food pantry services. There are no reservations required, and instead, you just walk in, express your need for food, and on the spot they provided to you. I can't think of another organization in Orange County, that readily provides meals and food, and doesn't make obtaining it difficult. Unlike other organizations in the county, Recovery Road doesn't make people jump through hoops to access support, they don't make people feel uncomfortable or like they have to beg to be heard or to receive help. The staff and volunteers here are just humans who want to help other humans, and as much as it seems like that type of behavior would be normalized, it is truly Diamond in the rough these days. The founder Robin is just the sweetest! She goes above and beyond to make sure that every person who walks in the door feels seen, feels like their unique concerns and struggles are met with compassion, supportive ears and offered helpful hands. If you are looking for essential supplies, a community as you work your way through recovery, a place to food, or if you want to be in a place where you can volunteer your time and effort and know that you're genuinely going to provide essential support services directly to the people that need help the most, I highly recommend you check out Recovery Road in Anaheim.

I struggled writing this review, but I feel it's important. I had two run-ins with Robin Rush, and…read moreafter the first, I wrote a complaint but didn't send it, hoping things would improve. After the second, I realized this was a pattern, and after reading other reviews, I saw it wasn't just me. To those who spoke up before: thank you. Your honesty helped me see my experience wasn't isolated. Because of your reviews and my own documentation, I was able to present the truth to the court and received another extension even after being told I had no options left. I'll take responsibility for not securing my extension properly... that was on me. But the way Robin handled it was unnecessarily harsh. What could've been resolved with simple communication turned into a cycle of criticism and disrespect. She accused me of being "lazy," "not working," and "needing to be told to keep busy," all of which are false. To clarify: once, she saw me on my phone after eight hours of work, texting my partner I'd be home soon. Another time, her son saw me talking to two volunteers on our scheduled break. Besides those two, no staff member ever implied I wasn't working. In fact, I was respected by the rest of the team and praised for my effort. Even in disagreement, I remained polite and respectful. I apologized after our initial misunderstanding, which she ignored. She once raised her voice at me in front of staff completely uncalled for. She also slammed a paper down and slid it across the counter toward me with an irritated, "What's this? This means nothing to me," before I could even explain. It wasn't a violent throw, but it was aggressive and unnecessary. I stayed calm. At that time, she even confused me with someone else, insisting I had "argued" with her over text when no such exchange existed. When I later read a reviewer's comment about Robin throwing a purse at them, I believed it instantly! I'd seen that same temperament myself. At one point, when I opened up about feeling overwhelmed, hoping for understanding, she told me to stop with my "sob story" and sent a screenshot of a helpline. No empathy, no concern, just dismissal. No one working in recovery or service should ever say that to someone struggling. People come for help, not humiliation. The last time we spoke, I mentioned her staff's early closures made me short an hour on my timesheet. Her response: "That's not my problem." Those words said everything. I've since learned others had the same experience. One reviewer said Robin told him "everyone was complaining about him," the exact thing she told me. That pattern matters. When a person in authority tells struggling people they're the problem, even when they're trying, it's not just unkind, it's damaging. For those seeking recovery or structure, that kind of treatment can push them further from healing. To be fair, what Robin does for the community, food distribution, recovery meetings, community service is good work. But compassion and communication are just as vital. She may run programs, but she lacks the empathy those in recovery truly need. Ironically, this experience became a blessing in disguise. My new site, a church, welcomed me with warmth and patience. They even told me if I'm ever short on hours, they'll work with me. That's the spirit of service that changes lives. Robin often speaks of being close to God, but my experience with her was the opposite of Christ-like compassion. "Be kind and compassionate to one another, forgiving each other, just as in Christ God forgave you." -- Ephesians 4:32 To anyone volunteering, completing service, or attending meetings here do so with awareness. This organization's mission is admirable, but its leadership needs reflection. A person can feed bodies and still starve spirits. I sincerely hope Robin one day understands the power her words/actions have and chooses to use them to heal rather than harm.

Cake pan gifts are a 9x13 disposable cake pan from dollar tree, a box of cake mix, can of frosting, birthday card, balloons, (I added a birthday button), birthday candles and a can of sprite. You can google the recipe to make a cake with sprite instead of eggs and oil which is perfect for food banks. I will add a photo of my finished product for guidance. The gal at the front desk was very nice and instructed me to drive around to the side to the large open door. I walked in and someone asked how they could help me. She grabbed a cart and came out to m car and got my three bags that had the 12 cake pan gifts in them. She was so happy and excited to receive them and it made me feel so good!!
