“Amazing place! The animals are just fun and are well cared for. It's a beautiful area and great for visiting. They bring in animals that are retired or have special needs and they are just amazing! Definitely worth the visit!”
“There are many music programs, but there is only one Rockit Academy which is, by far, the best music education organization in NJ. Rockit is for the young musician that aspires and is dedicated to being their best and wants to be part of a group of young musicians that share that same passion. The instructors work 1 on 1 and in band situations to develop musicians to play the right way, build confidence and push students beyond their comfort zone. Beyond that, the musicians inspire each other in a way that brings out their best for their performances.
My son started Rockit in the middle of his freshman year. The growth as a musician and performer that he experienced in his time at Rockit prepared him to follow his passion into college where he continues to elevate is ability. Simply put, he would not be the musician he is and would not have the foundation to build his future on without the instruction and opportunity he had at Rockit.
Rockit is a difference maker in a young musician's trajectory. To be the best, you need to learn from and play with the best. There are countless success stories, countless developmental experiences and no better program to prepare young musicians for whatever their next step is after high school.”
“POAC provides essential support, education, and advocacy for families navigating autism. The passion and dedication of everyone involved is truly inspiring. An incredible organization making a real difference in our community.”

“I am so fortunate to teach yoga on behalf of The Phoenix. Support and encouragement on the mat help us to trust the process and stay the course on days when we don't want to go it alone. We’re in it together, and that makes a difference. I love The Phoenix community. It’s like home.”
“Last Friday I had the pleasure of visiting the Restore in Asbury Park. I love the hunt of finding old treasures… Restore is my new favorite spot in town. There is so much to look at and it’s organized!! (I hate when I have to sift through piles!) The staff is so friendly - there is a really fun vibe in the store.I can’t wait to go back!”
“The staff here are so friendly and welcoming! I lost my wallet and they kept it safe till I came back! I was also trying on items and they helped me feel comfortable looking for sizes that would fit me better!”
“If you’re going for counseling this for me was the best experience! Denis Bilups was really there for me and the group meetings on Wednesday morning were great he really knew how to control the room and have people unlock their emotions that you wouldn’t even think some of these people had. I found out a lot about myself and grew as a person for the better. The evening meetings I wasn’t so fond of Denis didn’t do them was other people. Seemed like the people who didn’t take it seriously went in the evening just to get it over with. But I would highly recommend going to Jewish family center and definitely attending Wednesday morning groups with Denis, he makes it personal and his method works and I’m forever grateful.”
“Saw Jonathan Tea's Spill the Tea singer songwriter series here and it was outstanding! Four great songwriters taking turns sharing their best songs...what's not to love! Do yourself a favor and check this out.”

“I'm admittedly a biased because my church (Shore Christian) runs the place but the Dream Center's service to the local community is one of the main reasons we chose that church in the first place. You'll never meet a more genuinely loving and welcoming group of people.
They have a food pantry that supplies groceries through several ministry activities and hosts Adopt A Block donations in Asbury and Neptune.
There is also a baby pantry which provides essentials as well as toys, furniture, etc to local families in need.
We are called to live our neighbors and the Dream Center is the epitome of that. No need to go overseas for mission work when there is so much good work to be done right next door!”
“We attended a lovely gathering here. It was an auction, and they used the entire space. There is a nice front door visible from the main road, and an equally good entrance from the back of the parking lot. There is a nice working kitchen, and a main room with a stage. Looks like it could be good for small and group gatherings. Also, there is a room off to the far side, opposite the kitchen, that has what looks like a working fireplace. I would definitely consider this if I had a gathering like a family party, or a group get together. It's quite nice inside, and you can tell that they are keeping up on the maintenance of an older building with some nice character.”
“Tuesday music on Broadway in Long Branch. It's usually outside in back of the Portuguese Club on 191 Broadway. If it's raining they bring it inside. IT'S FREE!!”

The coffee was delivered to us on time and distributed quickly. The feedback on the quality of the coffee itself has been very positive.

“excellent organization! The staff is professional and very organized. They made the adoption process easy and stress free. It is obvious that all animals in their care are well taken care of. Jeremy and I thank you!”

“I have recently worked with FCS in helping with my friends, who are elderly couple with serious identity theft issues on bank transactions. The FCS has provided great service to them. They came to visit my friends home immediately and took the case. The case social worker Ms. Keana Miller has done a lot of great work! She has contacted the banks; discussed the issues with the banks; finding many resources and making good suggestions. With FCS and Ms. Miller’s efforts and power, there are significant development of the case. Without FCS and Ms. Keana Miller, my friends could never got this point. Ms. Keana Miller is very professional; knowledgeable; thorough; patient; and communicated information clearly. On behalf of my friends, we want to express great appreciation to FCS and Ms. Keana Miller’s great work!”
