Community Services/Non-Profits in Clearwater, FL

“I have nothing but positive words for the Tampa bay team. Listen as someone who has no parental figure to rely on these people will go above and beyond to help you buy a home. Todd Leclair and Cheryl Hudson are the bomb.com!!!! I got so many great take aways from their class they truly go over every solitary thing that is needed to know to buy a home. The follow up counseling sessions help you so much by going over your budget, income, expenses, and most importantly your savings plan. I cannot stress this enough they genuinely want to see you succeed and will do anything to help. Please utilize their services the classes the counseling you will not regret it!!!”

“I love this little Park and all the events they have there. Dunedin itself is one of the best places to be. There is so much to see and do here. There are always lots of music and events at this park.
This is also a animal friendly Park.”

“There is a Flea Market there every Saturday till the end if the year. I have a space there. I sell new clothes 2/5.00, New Crocs for 10.00 only 5 Pair left. New Levi's Mens Slippers 10.00. Very nice people to deal with. It is outside, so it does get a little hot at times. Come and check us out 8am to 2pm Saturday.”

“Always there to help the community in any way they can. Feeding Tampa Bay goes to my local one two times a month and there’s always so many people there. It’s a really big help very much appreciate their presence.”

“Super nice staff. We adopted Yumiko at an event and they had her all ready to go when we got there. Very informative, very clean adoption center, easy paperwork and payment. We love our new addition to our family!”

“Yesterday I had the most amazing day of my life I've got to meet some of the most amazing people I represent Jesus my grandson was graduating from their life skills program I got to meet a lot of children that were there and their parents to watch so many people care about so many other people they huge giveaway yesterday to watch the people come up and be so excited for the stuff was free tell watch the expression on the people's faces so happy to just give and not expecting anything back it truly was the greatest day of my life since I've moved to Florida I would post the pictures that I took yesterday but without the permission of some of the parents and their children I don't feel right to himself but I can promise you the leaders that run this place there dedication to these children. To refuse to allow these children to become anything other than kings and queen that they deserve today was remarkable”

“I’ve been using Services Unlimited for the past 5 years, and I couldn’t be more satisfied with their service. They are always professional, communicate clearly, and go above and beyond to help with anything I need. Whether it’s notary services, taxes, or a range of other services, they consistently deliver with efficiency and care. The team is friendly, reliable, and truly a pleasure to work with. They also speak Spanish, which makes everything even more convenient. I highly recommend Services Unlimited to anyone looking for trustworthy and dependable support whether that is business or personal.”

“Neighborly in Largo was an enormous blessing for us and for my grandma, Darlene. She loved coming daily (even though everyday she forgot she had been there before), and was treated with such kindness and love from all the staff. Lee was very helpful as we navigated the new waters we had to care for her, as was everyone else. We were able to continue our jobs (although we had to shift hours), while she lived with us and we knew she had a nice friendly place to have fun while we were at work. Sadly, her time there was too brief and she is now with the Lord. We just wanted to say thank you for all that you do for our aging adults and the way you helped our family and my grandma. Thank you again for your services to our community!”

“If you get a chance to attend the Yoga in the Park at Coachman Park led by the Y In Motion instructors, please do so. I went to the Monday evening and the Saturday morning class while staying in the area. The instructors were excellent. These classes can be followed by all levels of ability. They play music in the background and some instructors use a microphone and some don't. It's outdoors on the grass so there may be wind and chilly temps from the waterfront and the grass may be wet. Bring your mat and a towel. It was winter when I went, so it got dark during the Monday evening class, but the green was lit up and the huge fire torch sculptures were lit. It is a gorgeous setting. I really enjoyed these classes and couldn't believe they were free and found plenty of free parking.”

“Ive been here 10 days. I'm grateful for a place to live with my husband. Pinellas hope is the only place couples can be together. It's very hot inside the tents in the daytime. My advice: get a portable battery powered camping fan. Meals are kinda light. Other than that everything is great and case management is very helpful. I'm grateful I'm not in jail or sleeping in the woods like I used to. The staff is nice and they will let you borrow bicycles if u can prove you work. I just wish there was wifi. I ran out of data 2x on my phone. But, on the bright side, noone bothered us, stole from us or harassed us. I didn't really see too much evidence of illegal drug use here. Is is not as much as some other reviews on here may lead u to believe. Give this place a chance.”

“Empire Vapor Barrier came through for us again !
Thank you Paul & your employee Noel. Mom called Paul for help with AC ducts and he sent Noel right over. He was great .
The crew at Empire is friendly ,courteous, and qualified to do just about anything you need .
Thanks again ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

“First, no signage to direct you to the Festival. This is a Huge recreation facility. I drove into first entrance off Belcher and drove in the densely parking area. No signs.
This is my fifth time at the Festival. I truly support the cause but it needs some tweaking.
Inside. Where the trees are, it is so dark, very dimly lit that only the lights from the tree illuminate. You could barely make out some of the decor. I felt badly for the vendors. Was difficult to see their products to sell.
The entertainment was adorable.Young children performing.”

“I went to an informative seminar on Marijuana here yesterday. As a nurse, I want to know more about this, since it seems to be more prevalent in my community. The speaker showed results of studies done, especially with children /teens that was so frightening, And, interestingly enough, she informed us of the main source of funding for medical marijuana in Florida and who's spending millions to get the next step on the ballot. It's mostly only one entity! I've worked in Drug Rehab for 5 years and have seen the effects created by drugs on teens and adults. Marijuana is NOT free from harmful effects. I encourage everyone to inform yourself of the recent studies and the dangers of marijuana for us in rearing new generations and living happily as adults. This center can provide you this information.”

“The Pinellas Community Foundation is a true asset to Pinellas County! Their dedication to improving the lives of local residents is inspiring. From supporting vital community programs to helping nonprofits grow and thrive, they are making a real difference every single day.

What I appreciate most is their genuine care and commitment to serving our area. They don’t just fund projects they build partnerships that create lasting impact. It’s clear they have a deep understanding of the unique needs of our community and work tirelessly to meet them.

We’re fortunate to have such a strong, trustworthy organization leading the way in Pinellas County. Highly recommend supporting their mission!”

“My father came home for hospice after 3 months in rehab on Dec. 23rd. He was not in good physical or mental shape with dementia and sundowners causing severe hallucinations. He declined rapidly and went into critical care after about 3 days.

Every single person at Empath that came by was incredibly nice, helpful, professional and honestly cared about his well being during his final days.

They dispatched a nurse at 11:00PM as well as additional drugs to help him rest comfortably. I can not say enough good things about this company, their care and compassion for caring for my Dad. He passed this morning sadly, however they stayed until the funeral home arrived and even helped carry his body out of the bedroom where a stretcher would not fit.”

“This is a fantastic non-profit foundation that supports The Arc Tampa Bay agency, which cares for persons with Intellectual & Developmental Disabilities. Our son lives in one of their group homes & we could not be happier with the fun fulled life he has! Thank you!”

“Living in this community has been such a positive experience for me. The property is clean, well-maintained, and feels safe and welcoming. What really makes this place special, though, is our manager Janet and MT Jason.
Our community manager goes above and beyond to make residents feel heard and valued. She is friendly, professional, quick to respond, and genuinely cares about the people who live here. Whether it's handling maintenance requests, answering questions, or organizing community updates, everything is handled efficiently and with kindness.
It's clear that a lot of effort goes into keeping this community running smoothly, and it truly shows. I'm very happy to call this place home and appreciate all the hard work the management team (Janet and Jason) puts in every day.”

“I am one of the construction volunteers and I have to say that the professionalism of their construction crews - are SECOND TO NONE! I have worked/volunteered with them for almost 2 months now and although I live over 1 hour away, I always check their construction calendar every single day, and I sign up as soon as I see an opening.WHY? Because I see first-hand, every time I volunteer, how much they care about the houses they build! As a matter of fact, the first time I went I was told by more than 1 of their site supervisors that the house I am helping to build; is not for some unknown family, but it’s for my own family! Therefore, I should give it as much care as if it was mine!Although they have numerous site supervisors, I had the pleasure to work many times with, Mike, Mark, Joshua and Joe, in no particular order... True professionals who take the time to explain, show and help volunteers perform their assigned task in the safest way possible! Thanks to the above supervisors, I have learned how to do things that I never thought it was possible for me to do on my own.Mike, Mark, Joshua, Joe - you have succeeded in building my confidence level beyond my imagination!!! THANK YOU!!!For the record – I am not affiliated nor am I receiving any kind of compensation from Pinellas/Pasco Habitat for this review. This is just my way of expressing my gratitude and appreciation to a very professional team, which I am sure, it’s a reflection of their managers above.Peter G”

“Excellent early child care center , a staple of the community, many people have been through this place,given that this place has been open for over 30 years now , some teachers have been there for decades and know everyone around this community and sometimes even watch the parents bring their children there and they have been through this center when they were kids, They have a new director now and the place is more cheerful and bright than ever before … totally recommend it!”

“Safe Place Was A Very Great Program. I Was In This Program For Over A Month, And The Services Are Great. The Cook Is Great, And The Works Always Kept Me Laughing. One Of The Best Programs Ever.”

“Drank the free complimentary water and ended up in solitary confinement with my bank account drained and a missing kidney.

10/10 Would watch the South Park episode about them in the Lobby again.”

“We attended the Clearwater Jazz Fest on Saturday, October 18th. It was absolutely beyond wonderful. I had never heard of Lady Blackbird, but she and her band did an awesome job. Shortly thereafter, Trombone Shorty and his band appeared and took everything to an even higher level. I've attended many concerts in the past, but, after seeing his impeccable performance & high energy level, he hit the top spot and kept it going throughout his show. Freakin' greatest performance ever! I'm pretty sure that he knocked everybody's socks off when he and part of his group walked through the crowd under the spotlight.
[Seating was accommodating with decent views.
The sound was fantastic. Great staff. Food and beverages available. Easy access to restrooms.]”
