“Powered by Professionals (PBP) has been a critical partner for MOVE|NYC| over the last two years. We engaged them during a major growth phase, including our 10th Anniversary gala. PBP was instrumental in driving fundraising with our Board, honorees, and donors while managing end-to-end event production. Their support allowed our leadership to stay focused on high-level strategy rather than logistics. Thank you, PBP, for being an incredible extension of our team. Highly recommended for any organization looking to level up their fundraising efforts!”

“A true community; welcoming, warm and wonderful classes and experiences. Every one is welcome; it's not a religion, it's not a cult- it's a place where people come together to share, grow and shine their LIGHT! Stop in the bookstore, ask some questions, get to know TKC and join a class!”
“Really nice Masjid mashallah. If you’re going to Jummah the parking lot fills up asap so make sure to go early. They have produce boxes for members of the masjid who need them which I thought was really nice and thoughtful. The imam also gave a very nice khutbah and I definitely recommend listening to it all. There was even a cute cat at the entrance.”
“I stumbled upon this cute place while exploring the city. I had never heard of a zine before but was in awe when I walked in. It’s easy to forget about time and get lost in all the zines and books. The staff is really kind and passionate about the arts. Savannah really took her time to show me what Zines are all about. I was really inspired by her. I can’t wait to come back in the fall when I’m in the city.”
“Nice spot. No servers interrupting the flow with drinks. Sound system is ok, certainly not state of the art. The smoke machine is right out of Spinal Tap :) Recommended.”
“We couldn't be more grateful to peace4paws for first saving our puppy (and the rest of his litter) from being euthanized and for also allowing us to make him a part of our home. The care and attention they give to all the animals in their care is exceptional. Our hearts are filled with such love as our family is now complete.”
“North Bergen Purr is absolutely amazing—I’m so grateful our paths crossed. The staff and community are incredibly kind, welcoming, and supportive. My family and I are currently fostering two sweet kitties, and it’s been such a beautiful and rewarding experience.
Everyone at North Bergen Purr truly cares about the well-being of the cats and the people involved. You can feel the love and dedication in everything they do. I really hope we can continue fostering and being part of this wonderful community. Thank you for all the work you do!”
“Good morning I’m Evelyn I was a client years ago I never had an opportunity to say thank I appreciate you all for making me feel so comfortable the first time I went for help there it was an amazing experience God bless you all”
“My husband passed away last year. A friend who had just joined The Ridgewood Woman’s Club encouraged me to go to a RWC lunch/ meeting to see if I might like to join also… which I did.This group of special, intelligent and caring women were so welcoming to me. I then joined and have not regretted it!
The Ridgewood Woman's Club is an exceptional woman’s club with a fabulous President, Pamela Swords , who gives this club her heart and soul!She is truly a gift for this club and its members! Lastly, but most importantly, The Ridgewood Woman’s Club does so many wonderful and charitable things but also leaving time for the members to do some fun activities together also!”
“This store is amazing! Always a great selection, super low prices, and the staff is incredibly sweet. Made a few purchases a few days ago and they let me know the profits that day were going to breast cancer awareness. Love their mission!”
“The mission at PAWS to help elderly/disabled individuals keep their pets by providing fostering, vet transport, dog walking and litter maintenance. Most of these people have had their animals for quite a number of years, so you're not going to get kittens and puppies if that's what you're after. This organization is an amazing testimony to how having an animal as a companion can sustain someone even in the midst of a diagnosis. Orientation is done via Zoom, so you don't have to leave your home and volunteering here can be very fulfilling.”
“I made three trips to Toni’s with my recently deceased mom‘s clothes and blankets. They were very appreciative of the donations and very sympathetic with me.”
“It’s always such a good time at City Green. Whether I’m stopping by their annual farmers market- which has a ton of great vendors with food, decorations, and all kinds of cute stuff, or hanging out at their summer events with live music, drinks, and a chance to wander around the farm and see the animals, it’s just always fun. Overall, such an awesome spot, and I’m really glad Clifton has it!”
“Honestly the most amazing experience, used their lockers and changing rooms to go for a run in Central Park.
Thank you so much NYRR, and thank you Dennis for your hospitality.”

“Thank you Estonian House and Eurocircle for hosting the Eurovision watch party! I’ve been a fan of the competition for ages, but Ive never had so much fun watching it (it’s actually not as much fun right at the Eurovision arena). Everyone was so nice and welcoming, I truly felt at home! Thank you!”
“The Park St Y is clean, well organized, equipment is new and there’s a great selection, the staff is always visible and friendly, and there are a host of classes available. Great YMCA!!!!”

“Went on two Friday walks this year. Had Mary as a guide both times. Her knowledge of the birds, bird calls and plant life was extensive. It’s a beautiful natural area and the building has just been renovated. They were planning a special Saturday on monarch butterflies when I visited. Especially enjoyed seeing northern flickers, crows and chipping sparrows and learning more about the plants and trees.”

“I have adopted from this shelter twice and it is phenomenal. The way it is run by Christine Conte and the care for all the animals is the best around. These animals get the best medical care and so much love. The staff is very kind and knowledgeable. All the volunteers give the best love and care to the animals and work so hard to get them all adopted. The cats I adopted from them you could say were rescued but I was the one that was really saved. All absolute loves of my life. So much happiness and joy this shelter has given me and I would always think of them first when adopting, THE BEST IN RESCUE!??❤️”

They make we want to volunteer for their tax prep program and I will always support them. Thank you!”
“This was an excellent tour made extra special because of our tour guide George. He was very knowledgeable about all the history of Harlem but was able to answer all our questions with a great sense of humour and interest in the 5 of us on his tour. Thanks George keep on doing what your doing. From two Aussies.”
“A great little shop with very fair prices. They only take cash FYI and I wish they would give receipts... It's the only downside to this obviously lovingly presented shop”
“Wonder place to have your event . This is my family’s go to spot for events .The Bartenders Chris and Laura were amazing. Very attentive all night and great hospitality.”
