She was so kind to do a meet and greet with my new perspective puppy before I was ready to adopt. Then she helped prepare the adoption with all the paperwork and a little gift basket! Our puppy Max is simply incredible. He is well behaved and was obviously loved during his foster. I am a new puppy parent and have lots of questions. Stacey has been so sweet and helped me with all my questions before and after the adoption! This is a great organization, who truly wants to help animals in need. I hope everyone can find a wonderful new fur-child to adopt and add to their family!

This is not a real rescue organization. I contacted them and submitted an application about a dog…read morethey posted on Facebook. I got all kinds of weird responses from the woman telling me she couldn't answer her phone because she was cleaning and then because she was working graveyard shifts, she kept telling me she was going to call me, but she never did. She then started texting me about another dog that had brain issues and that might be a good one for me (instead of the one I was trying to contact her about.) They advertise online that you could have a meet and greet with the animals, but then they never text the address of where they actually are located. I see another woman commented on this business with a similar experience. Something is very off and wrong. There's very little oversight with places like this unfortunately. Visit your local, SPCA and save yourself the hassle.

Each member brings different skills and life paths to our organization. We do a number of community services such as clothing swaps, international outreach, as well as raising funds for local families. Our annual chili cook off and car show is going on its 6th year. This event allows us to raise money to buy Christmas presents and food for children who are in domestic violence programs. In addition, we support our local vets and law enforcement. We are more than a volunteer organization, we are a sisterhood of women of all ages who support and empower one another.

I came here to volunteer, and to my surprise, there were even younger kids participating. I learned that the minimum volunteer age is 10 years old. Some students were volunteering for school service hours, while others came through different companies and organizations. We joined the second shift from 1pm-4pm. The session started shortly after 1pm with a briefing and task assignments from the group leader. All tasks were explained clearly. The leaders checked on us throughout the shift to make sure we were doing okay and to see if anyone had concerns. Halfway through the shift, we had a 15-minute break, and one of the leaders brought ice cream to celebrate a volunteer's birthday and shared it with everyone. I thought it was a meaningful way to celebrate a birthday while helping a good cause. We actually finished around 3:30pm, and our shift completed: - 5,451 lbs of food packed - 474 boxes prepared for the "No Student Goes Hungry" program supporting students from elementary school through college in Sacramento County. Everyone was very friendly and accommodating, and the facility was clean and organized. Restroom: clean, bright, and decent. If you are interested in volunteering, check out their website and register in advance.

Although not fun, there is one huge benefit to moving...being able to sort through a bunch of…read moremisplaced and forgotten stuff. Within all of this stuff, was a bunch of new and lightly used clothing. In the past I have donated clothing to my local Goodwill Express. However, I did some reflection and realized that all of the clothing that I donated was being sold for profit. Going forward, my intention was to donate to an organization that receives the donation(s) and distributes them to underprivileged individuals/families free of charge. Some research led me to the Sacramento Food Bank & Family Services. Upon calling to verify their hours (Tuesday, Thursday, Friday, 10am-1pm and Wednesday, 4pm-7pm), I gathered all of the clothing and hit the road on a mission to make a difference. Upon arrival, I was greeted by a Sacramento Food Bank employee who eagerly began to load my clothing donations onto a cart. Since a lot of the clothing consisted of dress pants and dress slacks, he proceeded to inform me about a program called "Job Smart Clothing." Job Smart Clothing is a program within Sacramento Food Bank that provides career appropriate apparel for underprivileged individuals interviewing for employment or currently employed. How cool is that? I'm not a representative for Sacramento Food Bank & Family Services. However, I will say that they provide an awesome service to the community, and that a little donation goes a long way (individuals who benefit from their services often leave with 15-20 pieces of clothing per visit). Before you throw away that piece of clothing that you think is out of style or doesn't quite hug your curves the way that they used to, think about donating it to the Sacramento Food Bank & Family Services!

It's like a thrift store for crafts. Most items are used and in good condition. We saw all kinds of yarn, wood, stamps, sewing supplies, and even birthday and Christmas items. Everything has is in it's own section but does take some time to look around, if you want something specific. As for the crafting area, it cost about $8 for 1 hour of crafting. They had tons of recycled items available for crafting. It did take us a bit to look around and decide on something to create. But once we did, we found lots of things to use. They did have glue guns to use but I didn't see paints, or sharp things for cutting. They also offer birthday parties in their crafting area. ReCreate is a crafters dream but an organizers fever dream. It can be a little hard to look but it's best to just take your time and enjoy the walk around.
