“This is a great place. My niece and nephews love the animals inside the nature center. We also love the lake and the waterfall outside. A great place for kids that is FREE! Wonderful way to get them outside and learning about nature. Very helpful and kind staff.”

“I recently learned of this charity and decided to organize a shoe drive for Ms. Mona. This lady is the real deal , she is truly dedicated to this necessary and often overlooked cause. She does all the hard work with very little help. If you are considering a charity I recommend this one.”

“Went for the food pantry. The woman who initially signed us in was NOT friendly at all. I would not put her up from to start someone off here. She was pushy and just quite rude. With that being said, when I was called back the man who signed me into the computer was nice, then a lady took me back to pray with me. If you don't believe in prayer this is not the food pantry for you. Then when I went back to get the food everyone was super nice and helpful. ??”

“Make sure you bring a flashlight going there at night. It gets very dark. Excellent place to have a bonfire. They have a huge tent there with lights. There are 2 staff members that control the fire and supervise your party. Easily holds over 200 people. They give tours there but you have to book it. Steep stairs going downhill to get to tent and bonfire. You can rent the upstairs room which sits about 80 people. Ample amount of parking. Great for groups. Nice atmosphere with this forest preserve. Staff very helpful. Check this place out.”

“My kids are grown up now but I sure wish The Bridge Teen Center was there when they were younger! There are so many wonderful programs for the kids! It is so awesome for the kids to go there and check out new craft ideas and all kinds of other interesting topics and things to do! I'm sure some have even had a chance to meet new friends! What a wonderful program! I try to tell everyone I know about it and to support The Bridge Thrift Center by shopping and donating to their store!!! This is such a wonderful opportunity for the kids!”

“Great place. They have a weirdly good selection of kitchenware. Been there twice now and both times found exactly what I needed. 2 nice, see-through lids for pots, and a ceramic casserole dish from Corningware. All for a great price. Staff are friendly too! Will be back again”

“I love places like this because they shine a light on the animals that usually get overlooked. And if we’re being honest… don’t we all know what that feels like in some way?

Mice, chipmunks, squirrels, raccoons — just because they’re seen as an inconvenience doesn’t mean they don’t deserve life. It genuinely bothers me how easily people treat these animals with cruelty simply because they don’t fit neatly into our everyday world.

Like… haven’t we evolved past that kind of thinking?

I love that spaces like this exist, because they give people the opportunity to actually see these animals differently — and maybe even challenge the capacity of their own compassion.”

“This was my first time at the wic store since 1995. I didn’t remember how everything worked. The manager helped me and I am truly thankful for her. She went beyond her ability to help me and to make me feel comfortable. I would like to say that we need more good humans like her.”
