“Great organization that provides helpful information & guidance.
When your elderly parent changes mentally &/or physically, you have to research to find out their best options & what it would cost them. How do you know if your findings are correct?
Elderwerks can help guide you.
I called Elderwerks & spoke with one of their experts - Barbara Rosenberg. She comes with 40 years of experience with elder care.
Barbara asked me questions about my mom & her “new” situation. She evaluated my mom’s case & explained different options - Facilities, senior care, etc.
I also wanted a list of Elder care attorney & she gave me some in the zipcode area.
It did not stop there, later, Barbara checked up on me & my mom’s status.
The not-for-profit group provides you guidance, but they also show you compassion.”
“FMSC is a great place to volunteer, especially for families with kids. The flexibility is one of the biggest highlights- you can sign up for shifts that fit your schedule.
What really stands out is how welcoming and organized everything is. The activities are meaningful but simple enough for all ages to participate, making it a perfect way to spend quality time together while making a positive impact.
Highly recommend for anyone looking to volunteer in a way that’s flexible, family-friendly, and fulfilling!”
“I had a great experience! From the moment I arrived, everything went smoothly. The staff was kind, welcoming, and professional. I felt comfortable and well taken care of the entire time. Everything was clean, organized, and handled with care. I’m really happy with the service and would definitely recommend it to others. Thank you for making my experience so positive!”

“We always came here growing up! This American Legion was a huge part of our lives. We had family members that served! It was always such a great time! Great memories ?”
“My wife received her package several weeks ago and she cried. The thoughtfulness of each and every item is quite touching. She loves the blanket and uses it every chemo day with the booties. She tells everyone she meets about the hope box. God bless all of you for your wonderful work and a sincere heartfelt thanks to whomever requested one for her. Its not the items within the box so much as the outpouring of love and thoughtfulness that builds the spirit to keep cancer victims moving forward in a positive frame of mind. Thank you all!”
“I want to thank the beautiful women at Northwest Compass Mt Prospect for assisting me with my financial hardship. It was literally at the point of no return and things could have gotten drastically worse had they not stepped in to mitigate and advocate on my behalf. I saw the gospel being played out in real time as these women fought for me. I sat in another room but could see through the window how they were leaning forward sitting down on the phone speaking with my debt collector and were displaying love and passion for their jobs and me, their neighbor. We hit some walls along the way but my case worker Brianna McGahee patiently and persistently found a solution for me that has changed the trajectory of my finances in an indescribable way. I want to personally thank Brianna for not giving up on me when it looked like we were out of options. With her by my side it felt like there is always an option on the table. It’s just a matter of having the will to roll up the sleeves and get down in the dirt with someone to give them a hand up.
I highly recommend Brianna for any promotion or pay raise that is available for her. We need more people like her in the field helping those truly in need.
Thanks again to all the women involved in helping me. Praise God! God bless you all!”
“Bonnie the volunteer spent a lot of time providing information about the dogs I met, making sure that the animals were comfortable, and ensuring that the animals would be provided with a good home.”

“Please understand that Free masonry and the Shriners are not what they used to be 50 years ago. The reason why so many influential men are and were Freemasons From Walt Disney to Colonel Sanders is because Freemasonry used to really help you get ahead in the world.. As the decline of new memberships started the standard of being a Mason also decreased as well out of desperation for members. There’s so many people in here and they don’t even know why they are. It’s something to do In your spare time if you don’t really have friends, but it’s not gonna get you anywhere… Don’t believe me? Talk to Mason yourself and do not be afraid to question their answer Of why they joined Freemasonry and what they got out of it”
“I donate often and this is my go to place to drop off donation now. The staff who receive donations are always polite and courteous. The way they present items for resale, it is obvious how much care and heart they put into it. It looks like a well kept store.”

They are also looking for volunteers if you have time to spare.”

It is meant to be a calmer experience. Children and families were playing in there too, which wasn’t a problem.”

“We adopted Katalina 2 years ago today. She came from a 51 dog hoarding situation and was shy and skiddish. Guess what? She is still shy and skiddish and loved and spoiled and walked and treated like a princess. Her best friend is our rescued Beagle Spirit and she is the sweetest addition to our family. I loved working with Almost Home. The foster mom was so kind and went above and beyond to support our adoption. Please support this agency and the volunteers that make it happen.”
“I’ve learned a great deal from sustain DuPage regarding the health of our soul impacting the health of us! I’ve been with the organization since it started in 2016 and I’m proud to see the growth they have had over the years. This is a great place to bring your kids and your family members to learn, grow and enjoy the harvest!”
“My parents went to see Basma Michael the Resource Navigator and she helped them tremendously. She is very kind and patient. She helped them go through insurance plans to find options that worked for my mom. Wish we could give more than 5 stars to her! Thank you Basma!”
“Adopted my old man schnauzer from ARF. I expressed what I look for in a dog and they matched me perfectly. I appreciate that they saved him from a bad situation and was not deterred by his age. Great experience and my guy has a home for his golden years. Thanks ARF”

“God sent special Angels to comfort and support me during my darkest hours! I wasn't ready to share my pain nor be cooperative with total strangers. Nonetheless, the staff continued to be patient and empathetic. Gina Powell-Mosley”
