They really are dedicated to supporting the animals and I feel like my money is going towards a good cause. The Managment is amazing. They are always willing to help with a smile on their face and in general are just nice to talk to. That being said they don't have as many items as your normal jumbo overpacked thrift store (what can you expect in a tourist town) but they do have really good quality items at great prices. 10/10 recommend

I have pretty much every mobile tool that exist. plumbing, electrical, auto repair, you name it I got it. But when I was younger, in middle school, I took wood shop and metal shop. I love them both and made quite a few amazing items. In high school I made a chess board, and a desk. I always wanted to go back and experiment and do some artistic as well as functional items. Well this is the place to do it. It's like having a wood shop, a metal shop, textiles, ceramics, lasers, plasma cutters, routers... And the name of the place says it all. Community maker space. when my kids were born, I bought the materials to make them some rocking horses, but did not have a large enough space to lay everything out. I have plans for Adirondack chairs, and a few others that are just wasting away because I have no space to make them. And then somebody told me about this place. They have a very affordable monthly/yearly membership. Right now they are showing $60 a month or $500They have a good process to make sure that you are safe and able to work the machines. If you need help, they have workshops and classes. Also there are quite a few experience people hanging around, with a wealth of knowledge that are very helpful. Yes I cannot wait to start my adventure.

I had the opportunity to work for the first version of this NPO near the beginning, when they owned a home in NW Reno that provided a safe place for 5-8 young men to live and owned a restaurant in downtown Reno as a work experience for them. I knew the organization was vital then, but it just wasn't the right format for them to deliver their maximum impact. Over the years they learned a lot, and under the leadership of some extremely astute folks, they've grown into the vital community organization I always knew them to be. Starting with the YOU, they helped homeless youth find purpose and footing, access to necessary resources and opportunities to learn academically and about themselves with the support of some great local partners. In the last year they realized their dream of opening a 24 hour drop in center for youth, something so incredibly needed by our community, and they continue to advance their mission from there. Now they need our support more than ever. If you can, consider sharing something with them so they can continue to serve the community.
