Open Hand Atlanta

I started volunteering at Open Hand Atlanta around last year. There's multiple jobs you can…read morevolunteer for such as meal packing, food delivery, administration assistant, etc. It's a very easy process, all you do is sign up online on their website. Upon showing up at the facility, you will sign in on a computer then if you are brand new you will have a short class before volunteering so you can learn what to wear and what not, put on gloves, aprons and beard mask so you can prevent from hair contaminating the food in the kitchen. I usually volunteer for the meal packing position where you will be packing meals for about 2 hours for people who have dietary restrictions or just people in need. I find this a great opportunity to give back to our community. This company really relies on volunteers helping in the kitchen and they truly appreciate everything. They also have group sign up options so you can volunteer with your school, church group or work event. Anyways I definitely recommend for you to check it out! :)

My wife and I visited Open Hand Atlanta to volunteer our time for a couple of hours to prep meals…read more Open Hand provides nutritional meals for those with chronic diseases, such as AIDS/HIV, different forms of cancer, etc. These nutritional meals promote and prolong healthier way of life. Once you arrive and sign in, you'll be taken to a waiting room area, where Open Hand staff gives you a rundown of their history and what their mission is. You also get the rules of the prep room and are gifted a one of a kind hairnet, plastic apron, and men with facial hair gets face masks. No jewelry may be at any time. Rings, necklaces, earrings, facial piercings, watches, etc. can NOT be worn. There are different things that you can do at this space, but I wanted to do meal prep. We washed our hands and grabbed plastic gloves. Keep in mind, the gloves are different sizes. The meal prep was like an assembly line. The meal we prepped was Beef Stroganoff on Noodles with Green Beans. With a scale, the first person weighed the appropriate number for the noodles, the second person weighed the right number of beef stroganoff, and the third person weighed the right number for green beans. There is then a fourth person who wipes off any excess food from around the rim of the food container. This is important so the plastic cover will seal appropriately. It's then put in this contraption that holds multiple containers and a person press seals it and puts it to the side. This is definitely quite a process, but once you get into the flow of it, it becomes easier. Some people make it a challenge against another group to see who can make the most meals. Side note: THIS PLACE IS FREEZING! The ENTIRE BUILDING IS COLD! Bring a jacket or hoody. Overall, this is a great place to come with a group or by yourself and do some charitable services. Fortunately, we came with a large group of my wife's coworkers, so we were able to knock out over 2,500 meals which was awesome! I'd definitely come back.

Very disappointed with our experience. We went into this process genuinely excited to give a puppy…read morea loving, stable home, and instead were met with what felt like constant judgment and condescension. The main issue seemed to revolve around our current dog not being on heartworm and flea prevention for the last few months, despite the fact that we already had an upcoming vet appointment scheduled to get everything updated. Rather than having a respectful conversation, the communication immediately felt accusatory and shaming, as if we were irresponsible pet owners. At one point, we were essentially being asked to go purchase medication and provide months worth of preventative care for our dog and the new puppy we had not even adopted yet, before we were even approved. The entire process became increasingly uncomfortable and honestly unprofessional. There's a difference between advocating for animals and speaking down to potential adopters. Rescue organizations should absolutely care about where animals are placed, but there's also a way to communicate with kindness, professionalism, and basic respect. We ultimately decided to move forward with another agency that treated us like capable adults instead of assuming the worst. I truly hope they reevaluate how they communicate with applicants in the future because the experience left a really bad impression.

Our wonderful experience with Lucky Pup was handled through the foster family; Ray and Barb. Our…read morefirst visit meeting Max at their home was love at first sight. Ray and Barb obviously loved Max and he loved them. Ray went to great lengths to help us understand what we would be getting into with an adoption. We took a couple of days to request a home visit for Max. Being a puppy Max has tons of energy and that was a concern for this retired couple. While picking Max up I could tell that Ray was looking to see how we reacted to Max. During the trial visit we knew the second day that Max was now in his forever home. Max was house trained and sleeps all night in a crate from day one. Ray would touch base with us everyday to see how things were going. In short, the process was explained well and great care was taken to ensure that we were a good fit for Max. We couldn't be happier with our new puppy and the adoption process.
