Awesome facility to help meet the needs of our county. They…read moretruly make their volunteers feel welcome. If you are good sorting in the warehouse they have a very nice break area for when you need a breather. And their staff are genuinely grateful for your time. When you help with food distributions, they are well organized and they really have a feel for the community they serve. I only wish I had started volunteering sooner.

I recently volunteered here for a day of caring with my employer…read more It was very well organized and the volunteer leads did an excellent job hosting and guiding us. The Houston Food Bank is nice but I'll admit I enjoyed my Montgomery food bank experience a little better. Maybe because it was a smaller group of just me and work colleagues. Half of us worked with produce in the refrigerated room which was great for me since I tend to sweat and get hot easily. Others measured beans and rice in another room. There was ample parking and they provided us coffee, water and snacks during our breaks.

Help was given, one day I'll return the kindness…read more Highlight: Words of Wisdom from the lovely, Ms. Anestasia ~ They can take many things from you except the gift you gift yourself with - "‍{{INDEPENDENCE!}}"

An amazing organization that does so much good for the Houston area. It is a very easy process to…read morecome volunteer a few hours here as either an individual or group; I highly encourage you to volunteer at least once to see how such a large food bank functions. I have volunteered in their sorting room and packaging area, both are a lot of fun and, full disclosure, can be hard work - but it is so rewarding! Large parking lot on site. You are not allowed to bring anything in to the volunteer areas with you, so they have lockers to use for free during your shift.

The volunteers and staff are all knowledgeable and friendly. There's many different ways that you…read morecan volunteer. I do wish they had more options for people who can't stand for 3-4 hours. There's also a bit of concern in the meat packing when it comes to safety. Definitely wear comfy shoes and be prepared to do a lot of walking and standing. Great organization!

The work that they do for the community is just it's they're just great people. They go above and beyond to help especially the homeless and anybody in need it's just I mean I get overwhelmed with emotion just thinking about how much I appreciate what they did for me. If you ever need any help I would definitely call them and get the help that you need because they will do everything they can to help you. I promise you they're true Christians and they follow the teachings of Jesus. There's nothing fake about anybody up and they make you feel welcome they make you feel like you're seen heard and cared about. They go out of their way to make sure that you know that there are people out there that you care about you and you're going through something in life.

What a nice resale store! We went there after eating at Citizens (so fun!), and I mentioned to the…read morewomen working there that we had eaten at Citizens. They told me if we show our receipt we get 20% off. I don't take receipts anymore bc they're covered in BPA. So they asked what we ate and then gave us the discount. We got all kinds of cute clothes and toys for the three year old, and a Free People top for one of us! Oh, and they have a small Christmas section where I got the cutest framed pic. Note that they moved locations recently so the map we used wasn't updated. New location is across the main road running through Hempstead from the big courthouse looking building. Check it out! Drop off donations any time in the alley next to their store. They're in need of jewelry at the moment which I plan to take with me next time.

I've tried shopping in this store twice now, and the prices are much higher than other thrift…read morestores. I'm grateful they are helping people, and the store looks very nice; but people don't shop in thrift stores to pay $22 for a pair of blue jeans ( no matter what brand they are). I was told by the employee " those are Ariats", so the nicer things are priced higher. They were the ones that were in his size and the ones he wears normally. I'd honestly rather run down to South Texas Tack and buy them brand new at full price before spending that on a used pair, that were already ragged at the bottom. It seems as things are donated to y'all, you would rather move the items quickly to make room for new items but instead I saw the same things sitting on shelves that were there when the store first opened (because the prices are too high). I even looked at a vase in the back, that was one that you receive flowers in and it was marked $6. It should have been $1-2 if it's at a thrift store. So if your looking for a true thrifting experience with great deals, this isn't your kind of place I promise you.
