However it's a little on the small side with just one office it shares the same space as the United Way. I've done a few Flagler College Fair's for this particular Red Cross location and it also provides an awesome ability to be a great place to volunteer for Flager College students as well. So if you ever find yourself bored with nothing to do get out and VOLUNTEER for your local Red Cross! It's alot of fun.

We visited the Peña-Peck House in St. Augustine and really enjoyed the experience overall. It's a…read morebeautifully preserved historic home dating back to the late 1700s, and it offers a nice glimpse into Spanish colonial and early American life in the area. The house itself has a lot of charm, with period furnishings and rooms that help you imagine what life was like in early St. Augustine. The guided tour was informative and gave a good mix of history, architecture, and stories about the families who lived there. The garden area is also a peaceful highlight and adds to the overall atmosphere of the property. It's centrally located downtown, making it an easy stop while exploring other nearby attractions.

As a homeless veteran who recently found housing, I came to this Goodwill hoping to find a few…read moreaffordable items to help set up my place. I had read a lot of negative reviews beforehand but decided to give it a chance anyway. Unfortunately, my experience lived up to those reviews. I encountered multiple rude employees. When I asked a male employee for help, he dismissed me by saying, "I'm busy." At the register, an older white female employee who identified herself as a manager was extremely unprofessional. When I asked for her name, she refused to give it and walked away mid-conversation. She told me that lowering the price would be "taking money away from those who need it," while laughing and chuckling as if this were not a professional work environment. I tried to explain that Goodwill is a nonprofit and that the items are donated to help people in need, but she seemed unwilling or unable to understand that perspective. She refused to adjust the price on donated, used items that were already overpriced. Overall, this was a very disappointing experience, especially for someone who genuinely needed affordable household items. I won't be returning, and I hope management takes customer service and professionalism more seriously--especially when serving vulnerable members of the community.

It was my first time going to this new store, but not returning my money because of the girl talking to the other cashier, she rang up items twice, the Manager even said she identifies herself as a male, what in the hell has that do to her mistakes? I will never go there again. Nothing is organized as small, medium, Large or extra large,plus the shoe's are the same way, it takes hours to shop in an unorganized store with stupid rules and managers telling customers about identity like the girl identified as a male, managers should never speak private information about there worker's. Shoes were dirty and expensive, Goodwill was to help poor people, not Rich people. Very disappointed

First, you need to know there are TWO S.a.f.e locations in St. Augustine. I wanted to donate…read moreblankets, kitty litter, and food. The first location (6101 a1a), in my opinion, is truly doing their best. They are limited on funding and help. And perhaps a little unorthodox, but they seem to care about the doggies (didn't drop off kitty litter here as they only have dogs at this location) and they will talk to you happily about any dog you look at. Be patient with them and they will be helpful with you. The second location(1250 a1a) , however, .... where to start. It has a thrift store in the front but there are animals there to adopt. Many in fact. When I walked in with my donations I was ignored. I followed a woman and asked her where to put my animal donations (not thrift store donations) she seemed annoyed. She waved her hand in a general direction and said "that way" I went "that way" and ended up outside where another unhappy woman asked me what I wanted. I said I had cat litter and blankets. She said "put it on the stairs, doubt we will use the blankets" .... I was a little stunned at this point. But still wanted to see the dogs. My group and I were once again waved to a general direction, ended up around back, had to find the dogs on our own, and no one was there to talk about the dogs to us. Also, it was at this point that when we entered we quickly discovered a dog to be VERY aggressive. Now, who knows what this poor baby has been through, but his aggression was working up most of the other dogs. Very much. Everyone else quickly left the room. I refused to. (I always try to get pics of pups to send to people I think might give them a good home or post on FB with my fingers crossed) By staying I discovered 4 dogs immediately that were so loving that even with all of the barking and chaos they were just sweet and lovey. Which no one else got to see. One dog picked up her toy as soon as she saw me and got excited. I knew she was sick but was curious about her temperament with other dogs to help me find her a foster mom. A woman walked in and told me Mater (a different but SUPER LOVING dog) was a sweetie. I agreed. Then asked about the other sweetheart, her reply: oh, she has cancer. *shrugs shoulders and leaves the room* ..... WTF??? I know shes sick I wanted to know more to try to find her a loving home at least for the rest of her days. But NO ONE WOULD TALK TO ME!!! I left very upset. But this is where I tell anyone and everyone, please PLEASE don't let bad attitudes and loud barking keep you from meeting a wonderful potential new part of your life. These dogs need love. One of them held his head to the cage so I could pet him!! But no one else was walking in there. Also, I believe this place represents a very good cause. I still believe in donating to them and helping fur babies. But I'm warning you, this location is unpleasant, move past that to the animals and just love something that can't wait to love you. Should the owner read this, I thank you for your cause, but bad attitudes and being ignored does not get dogs adopted. Talk to your employees and volunteers. Please!! ??
