    I have been partnering for Bridges for years through the work that I do. Youth Development and…read moreFamily/Community Service is something that I love and they are the epitome of that! Let me start with the building, it is beautiful! The design, the resources. the large multipurpose rooms and the classrooms are are conducive to the type of work being done with the Youth and Community. I have gone for several occasions from banquets to rock climbing fun to youth workshops and they are always more than accommodating. Speaking of the activities, again I have gone for sporting and fitness retreats with students. This time, I went to facilitate a workshop and they had all of the equipment that I needed. The staff were super helpful! All of this makes an awesome facility and I look forward to continued partnership!

    Bridges is a gem in downtown that I believe probably is under utilized. It was the first…read morecommercial green building in Memphis and has all kinds of neat "green" features - like carpet made of recycled water bottles and solar panels. The architecture is very unique and is designed to help promote learning about buildings, structures and their relationship with the environment. I know this place offers a lot, but the scope of there activities and services is unclear. Their website isn't super helpful in communicating this sort of information either. I do know they offer team building activities, which is why I was here. Great experience! The activities were meaningful, well thought out and executed seamlessly. The staff was very helpful in facilitating conversations about the process while not letting us get too far off track in our discussions. One of my favorites of the night was the rock climbing wall! What a fun experience in general, let alone as part of a team building exercise. This wall is also open some Fridays for people to come and climb from 6-9pm for $15. Call ahead or check their facebook to check on which Fridays they are hosting this.

    Goodwill - Again, resale pricing is not what Thrifting is supposed to be. Fix it!

The employees and the manager were fessional, courteous and helpful. DOWNSIDE: The prices have almost doubled in the past few years and that's the only thing that disappointed me . This location & the others on Memphis & Collierville have elevated prices considerable- to reflect a consignment shop as opposed to a thrift store---- so I didn't put very much in my basket at all. Consignment shops only sale current trendy fashions that are clean and recently washed and their knick knacks and Jewelry don't have dust on them and they are displayed on racks and you don't have to take them home and clean them immediately . A thrift store, which the GW is - has closing that hasn't always been washed and has stains and holes in them so they haven't been looked through and there's lots of knick knacks and glassware on the Isles that are broken or missing pieces . I've noticed that in addition to taking the lamp shades off the lamps, that you're also taking the hardware that holds on the shade and the finials off the tops of the lamps as well . So you can't even buy a lamp and go home and put a light bulb in it because there's nothing to hold a shade on it to block the naked bulb- I realized space is limited but I truly believe the lamps should be sold with the shades they came with and the finials attached on top . I believe that Used shoes , even leather ones, should not be priced at $35 or more in a thrift shop. GW started out as a corporation to HELP people- but the price gouging is not being tolerated by the consumers well and that's why their shelves and clothing racks are so full and overrun with inventory. I still had a good time perusing the aisles and my teenage daughter found several pair of pants and jeans and t-shirts she liked. They luckily had the chasing booths unlocked.

    I have rarely had true hard times in my life until I moved to Memphis. I had plans that failed, so…read morein desperation I had to reach out for help. That is when the name Jesse Thrower was change my life for the better. I had no where to turn and no prospects. I was directed to 600 Poplar to begin finding services. This man was patient, he had kind words of encouragement, he made me laugh and all in all was able to make me believe it was going to turn out alright in the end. So fast forward a couple years, I am a success story. I have even been able to return the favors he bestowed to me by donating back. He is a wonderful, proper, caring individual. His guidance and insight is needed desperately when the chips are down. He never sugar-coats anything. But that man, Mr. Jesse is a God-send. Without him, so many more would be less than they are now. He keeps tabs on his "kids". He cares. It is a beautiful thing when he cares like a father. He cares when no one else does. I have been to the other mission. There was no help. All the help I received was from 600 Poplar. Mr. Jesse is in charge for a reason. He is the best to help you out to see long term how to fix the problems you are in. You do have to work but he will help you if you put in the effort. God bless him always and keep him safe! We need leaders like him!

He clothes the poor and checks on his people whom others have forgotten or care to look the other way at. He tries to treat the ones he is helping with dignity and a caring to help them become stable and independent. The goal is to be a place to rebuild but to fully heal on your own ad to be reintroduced back into the world. He is wonderful and tries hard to be respectful. A gentle giant. If you work with him, he will try to help you to become what you need to become. It is up to you what you become of but he has blessings of clothing donations and whatever the public can bring. He sees the need and tries to balance the donations to needs. the goal is to become self-sufficient so you must go in thinking about your own personal goals and how to obtain them. He helps but you need to start your life quickly. Poverty knows no color, it knows no race and it burdens even the best of us. When you can finally look past yourself and find the happiness of helping your fellow man again, then you are truly saved again and healing. It is hard but look around and see the bigger need of working together and then all this will end and you will be successful again.
