Instantly, after walking in and seeing the prices, and then reading what they posted on the screen. We said peace out. Obviously, there is a problem if people are complaining about your prices. It seems like common sense to me that if your prices are reasonable, people are going to buy it up. If you overprice your items, people are going to walk out, just like we did. We will never go back.

I moved to Lancaster a year and a half ago. I am new in this community and in search for places…read morethat are family oriented and eager to help the AV Community. I came across to Antelope Valley Partners for Health (AVPH) because a dear friend introduce me to it. When I visited, the place was so inviting and welcoming. I was impressed to hear about all programs free of charge they offer to anyone in need. I thought to myself, this is something everyone should know. As a mother of twins, I am always looking for opportunities to raise my children right, but not all the time I have the means to pay for programs to enhance their lives. I found out AVPH has some tutoring for my teenage girls. Also, about the parenting classes, or zumba lessons for myself. They told me sometimes teens can gather just to play video games together. I learned after about the Food Pantry that offers free groceries every 2nd and 4th Friday of the month. If people want they could also get a hot meal along with their fresh groceries. To my surprised, this December some Christmas trees arrived and were given away during the "Food Pantry" hours, first come serve basis. The atmosphere was so enjoyable as the members were wearing Christmas hats and socks. With all this pandemic going on, AVPH has free Covid vaccines available, just find out when is the next coming event. I was also able to donate blood at a Red Cross Blood Drive that took place at AVPH this last December. I recommend this place to any person. They are looking for families, children, teenagers, and seniors wellbeing.

Went by last week to donate at this location for the first time and first I'd like to thank Kayla,…read moreshe was so sweet and helpful, answered all the questions I had and made sure I was comfortable throughout the whole experience.

Happy Earth Day, 2026!…read more Did you know that humans produce over 460 million metric tons of plastic every year? After learning this, the first thought that came to my mind was 'This is a huge number! How much actually is this?' Consider this: This is more weight than the weight of the Eiffel Tower (Paris), Golden Gate Bridge (San Francisco), Brooklyn Bridge (New York), Empire State Building (New York), Statue of Liberty (New York), Leaning Tower of Pisa (Italy), Great Pyramid of Giza (Egypt), Burj Khalifa (Dubai), Space Needle (Seattle), Tokyo Skytree (Japan), The Pentagon (Virginia), and the Great Wall of China, ALL COMBINED, TIMES SEVEN! That's A LOT of plastic! Worse yet, we produce this amount of plastic EVERY year, and studies predict that it takes approximately 450 years for a plastic bottle to decompose in a landfill. That means that the plastic bottle that you throw in the trash will still be there for approximately 18 generations of your descendants after you. If you don't recycle, you are literally trashing our planet for your own offspring! And, Earth is the only planet that we know of that is capable of supporting life. OK, I'll get off my soapbox now. Aside from trying to be a good citizen of planet Earth, I also recycle because I could always use some extra cash. I can usually pocket around $20 for every visit I make here, which really helps because I am certainly not a rich man. This particular location is a great option for recycling, here at "Benites Recycling," located just behind Bob's Market (Lancaster, California). I've been to this location several times. The money you receive by recycling here is similar to what you will receive at other nearby recycling centers. There are three things I like about this location in particular, as follows: (1) they typically do not require you to show your I.D. like they do at some other locations; (2) they use lightweight recycling bins, so they can quickly obtain an accurate weight of your recycling without having to tare the weight of the bins; and (3) the wait here is usually minimal because there are usually less people here than at some of the other recycling centers I have gone to. Although I believe the folks here are honest, the only thing I don't like about this location is how the actual recycling weight is difficult for the customer to see unless the customer walks around the scale and stands next to the employee reading the weight. Aside from this one drawback, I do like coming here for the reasons mentioned above. I'll definitely return to this location in the future. If you don't recycle here, please recycle somewhere.

A Life-Changing Experience…read more I truly don't know where I would be today without Ms. La Toyia Conway Hampton and her incredible organization. During one of the most painful and challenging times in my life -- facing false allegations and going through a high-conflict divorce -- Ms. La Toyia stood by me with compassion, strength, and unwavering support. Even though I've always had a healthy and loving relationship with my children, I was put in a heartbreaking position that limited my time with them. I chose to voluntarily go through her program because I wanted to keep growing, stay strong, and prove my commitment -- not just to the system, but to myself. Ms. La Toyia helped me get through a difficult trial and guided me through powerful classes like parenting, anger management, sexual assault awareness, and personal development. She taught me communication skills and how to better handle toxic or high-conflict situations. She helped me sharpen tools I already had -- and gave me new ones that made me stronger, wiser, and more grounded. Her support carried me through one of the darkest tunnels of my life, and because of her, I was able to come out on the other side with clarity and hope. Ms. La Toyia, thank you for believing in me when everything felt uncertain. Your work matters -- and you make a lasting impact on lives, including mine. Forever grateful, Lauren Shinwari

Ms.Latoyia is like the mom I never had and I'm super happy to have met her and ALL the staff here. Being consistent and honest with myself and others has broken me free from old mindsets and behaviors. In the beginning everything that I was going through seemed like the worst thing that could happen to me but it was really a blessing in disguise. Definitely a 10/10 and would recommend it to any man or woman with similar circumstances.
