“I am a frequent shopper at this store. It is always clean and well merchandised. I have interacted with the manager, Heather, in the past and she has always been kind and courteous. Today, however, she went over and above. Somehow, I don't know how or where, I cut my finger. She was so kind and helpful, giving me wipes, antibiotic cream and Band-Aids. She even helped me by opening the items so I could access them easier. She is the true Spirit of Christmas.”

“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 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!”

“We adopted Weather yesterday. She is such a WONDERFUL, 2 year old mixed breed stray from out of town. Reach really does their due-diligence - checks your references and interviews you! Until you're cleared for take off, the one boss lady can seem a little strict, but anyone can see that everyone there has the best interests of the animals passionately in their hearts! There are so many cases of abuse and neglect in this world, and they want to make sure none of their beloved animals become a statistic.

I've owned small businesses and done a lot of volunteer work. I know too well that things don't always go right despite good intentions. To the other reviewers that didn't report 5-star experiences, I urge them to show some grace to these dedicated and passionate volunteers. Their hearts are AMAZING!

Thank you Reach Rescue!”

“Our House of Hope Rescue is an absolutely amazing place. Lisa is very passionate and takes immaculate care of her animals. She helped us find the most perfect leopard gecko for our family! She was able to walk us through everything we needed to bring him home. She was so kind and helpful and was great with my 7 yo daughter who has OCD and ADHD. Animals are very therapeutic for her and she was able to make my daughter feel very comfortable and gave her a great experience. We will be exclusively adopting from Lisa and Our House of Hope in the future.”

“I always love shopping here by myself and with my family. Great prices and daily sales. I was there the other day and heard a young woman with some kind of disability working there with a job coach. She was doing a fantastic job as was the job coach. It was confirmation that St Vincent shares my values and is committed to improving society in a way I would like to support. They will now always be my first stop!”
