"Cindy" was extremely rude when I went to this shop on a Saturday afternoon. I was standing inside…read morenear the entrance looking at a purse when she approached me and, in a nasty tone, said "we close at 4." I checked my watch and told her I still had 8 minutes, then continued browsing. She immediately followed up in an angry tone with, "Seven minutes!" I fully intended to leave by 4. She eventually walked away, and I continued looking around. A moment later, I heard her loudly say "We've been here all day!" and I noticed her speaking about me with her two coworkers while they all stared in my direction. I approached the counter and asked for her manager's name. She gave it to me, and when I said I would be speaking to the manager about her behavior, she again responded angrily, saying " I'll make sure to let her know." For a shop that claims to be a charity benefiting domestic violence victims, the attitude displayed by its staff does not reflect the mission they promote. I am a long time La Grange resident, and I've both donated and purchased items here over the years, but after this experience, I will no longer be patronizing this establishment.

My senior friends numbering 8 to 12 members play mahjongg at Community House and have been coming…read morehere for years. This year we have been asked to move to the foyer or to whatever room may be available as they rely on rentals for these rooms. We agreed and we have been playing where they tell us to go. We pay $2.00 and now are asked to sign in and pay the fee. Additionally, we always were given water and coffee, and are now told that would no longer receive free water or coffee. When several of our members complained about this, a call was made to one of our members that we were rude to their staff, and they are not going to put up with this. I believe The Community House is ignoring the elderly in their community and are actually forcing us out of this venue in favor of younger members. Why else deprive us of free water.

VFW's bring up childhood memories of cranky old men complaining about the war. At least that is…read morehow they seemed where I grew up. This place is anything but cranky old men complaining about the war. My first experience here was completely surprising. I came for the Friday fish fry with my father and the nugget, who was a baby at the time. During Lent, this place is PACKED with people on Friday nights. I could not believe it. While waiting for my fish to arrive, I got a glass of wine at the bar. I thought I misheard the price...nope I didn't...it was soooo cheap compared to a bar or restaurant. After I bit into a nice meaty piece of fried fish, I was hooked (buh duh cha). The fish fry continues all year long...not just during Lent. Don't like fish, no problem. They have Italian Beef sandwiches, hot dogs, and fried shrimp. The price of your meal also includes coffee, and cake for dessert. You can't go wrong. Don't forget to bring some cash for the raffles. They usually do a 50/50 raffle, and some other thing. For Valentine's Day there was a delicious pork dinner and a band. For St. Paddy's they do a corned beef dinner. High suggested! Tuesday is Bingo and Thursday is wing night. There is almost always something going on here. Check it out!

It was.90 degrees and I called n tried the doors all locked. I was outside by the horse trailers in the parking lot. No one answered the phone or came outside.

Why did mnt you textI was lectured. You called for the interviews so why didn't you say you expected a text. No apologies but a lecture. To waste my time, my gas n schedule this over a different interview. I applied again in January of 2026. They told me to come in for an interview than took that back. NEVER AGAIN! I WOULDNT TRUSTBL THIS COMPANY OF THESE PEOPLE IN CHARGE AMN THEIR REVIEWS AGREE Fix your company n dont waste people's time, effort n gas money along with inconsideration. Awful experience. Ray Graham you have a bad reputation deservedly so. Laura Allen negative stars if it were possible. DONT BOTHER.DONT.TRUST YOUR CHILD WITH THESE DISORGANIZED, DISRESPECTFUL PEOPLE.

I feel compelled to leave a review because my family member attends RGA. What used to be a fine…read moreoperation has devolved into one that is running amok. Guardians and parents are speechless at the lack of care and leadership that is provided to the clients. I won't talk about the "good old days" but now? It is an operation with heavy emphasis on management and not enough workers. It's a tough job for workers and they rarely stay because the pay is low and demands are high. State funding is inadequate, but no visible signs to alleviate the top-heavy organization are apparent. The saddest part is that as the guardians and parents grow older and are unable to care for their family member (yes, they are special needs and have been given no voice or ability to express their opinion) there aren't any other options. When our family members were born, law firms didn't take on cases that would provide families with financial assistance and put the blame on the doctors and hospitals that were responsible for many of their birth defects like they do now. RGA needs an angel to turn this once stellar organization back into one that is acceptably and efficiently run.

I received 80 cards for $10 and cannot wait to write on them. Each card is packed in its own plastic sleeve and some are really cute and festive pop-up cards. They are really good quality paper too. I did have to pull several cards that seemed odd or inappropriate but otherwise it was a great deal. It's a little far from my service area to drive to their site in Buffalo Grove, but I look forward to more orders in the future. Note that they only ship on orders of $300 and up. It is not a place for personal use but if you work for or own a 501(c) 3 organization, check this place out for sure. The application process was easy. The staff is also super friendly, helpful and customer service focused. They are helping many non-profits, keeping volunteers active, and keeping items out of our landfills too.
