Community Services/Non-Profits in Bradenton, FL

“I volunteered at this site and adopted my kitty via humane society. They are amazing. Please consider supporting this organization and adopting a cat or dog if you can. They have amazing pets ready for adoption. I love them they are my favorite charity. So thankful for all they do.”

“I called at least 6 other locations, and no one answered the phone. The fact that this location answers their calls is a 5 star in itself. The person who answered was very professional, heard what I had to say, and set me up with an appointment. I have not been to this location yet but based on the service via phone it seems that it's great.”

“There a great choice of classes to pick from. The class instructors are wonderful and the classes are well attended. The facility is nice and well kept. Overall a great place to get some exercise and meet our neighbors in the area”

“We must like this place, because we keep going back for more! Having recently moved to the area we were in the market for furniture. So far we have gotten a book shelf, dresser, dining table and chairs, and love seat. Prices are just okay and they will NOT dicker and deal. I found a stocking there at Christmas time that was exactly like what I had just seen at the dollar store and they absolutely refused to take less than two bucks for it........and I had just donated a bunch of stuff to them. We will shop there again.”

“Being a bit of a nomad or at least living somewhat of a nomadic lifestyle, personal purchases based upon new places will change with some frequency. Clothing staples include less cotton (they say up in Maine that "cotton kills' and more wool and microfiber, stainless steel everything as opposed to breakables, the list continues. Cotton kills because when you perspire from physical activity, cotton absorbs the wetness, then you sit n rest and the evening comes as do the cold temperatures and you'll get hypothermic and probably not make the morning. Side note: anyone with any questions about life on the roads and it's do's and don't s can always message me with any questions, I'd be glad to help. Because for me from now on, the roads will never end, they'll always start again somewhere new and end somewhere new too. The colored tags are definitely worth familiarizing yourself with as you enter. They'll denote specials and current deals that will save you more money and it's a fun little hunt as your finger glides upon the racks. "Thrifters" I thought were weird, but as it turns out and the more I observe this species, it's clear that they have a nice little side hustle of buying and reselling. I watch them like an Audubon bird watcher naming each newly discovered species as watch them and peer between the top racked old shoes and I meander past the lidless pots and pans. And somehow I found myself attracted to a counter girl which is weird because she's totally not my type. However she definitely has one very attractive attribute and when I get her at checkout, it's kinda like that old highschool fluttered firework heart throbbing feeling which I'm currently completely uncomfortable with, so I smile and pay and run out of there.”

“Me and my son love coming to the Bradenton YMCA! The facility is always clean and all the staff are wonderful. Front desk staff are friendly. My son enjoys going to Kids Zone. The staff make him feel at home and even provide homework help. I love all the choices in the fitness room. I can get my cardio in and there are a lot of options for strength training between all the machines and free weights. My son recently had a birthday pool party at the Y. Staff really went the extra mile to accommodate us and make it a special celebration. He and his guests had such a a great time!”

“Great place. At 30 minutes to closing, did a turn through the store and found several treasures. Lots of little turns and side rooms, organized, quirky. Super friendly woman at the counter. I see there is a used furniture place next door that definitely deserves a look. Select colored sales tags. Specific big sale days. I will be back for sure.”
