I appreciate the support I’ve received throughout my journey and I’m excited to continue working toward purchasing my first home. Thank you to the NACA team for helping make homeownership feel achievable!”

“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.”

“What an incredible experience with Mantena employees. Ju helped me and advised me what I should do to be able to take my mother's ashes to Brazil. With it I got a password for the Itinerary Consulate and everything went well. When I was there, I noticed people passing by and collecting food from boxes at the entrance of the agency. I was moved by this. Guys, we have to be more humble to help so many who are in need. Congratulations Mantena, Solange and your entire wonderful team. ❤️❤️❤️”

“We had an incredibly smooth resource adopting our latest dog, Bambino, through AHS Newark. During our initial meet up with our dog Bronson, a staff member brought Bambino outside and allowed us plenty of time for the dogs to get to know each other. The staff were also incredibly helpful in answering any questions I had. We had a very quick timeline: application to adopt sent out on a Sunday with same day approval, meet and greet on that Wednesday with approval to proceed with the adoption of Bambino, and then a pick up the next Monday once I was contacted that Bambino had been neutered and was ready to go home. AHS Newark provides pamphlets with plenty of resources ranging from “how long it takes a dog to adjust” to a list of qualified trainers and more. The checkout process also provided a quote for pet insurance through MetLife at a great rate.”

“I have two nephews attending 5 and 4. Both are doing outstanding work. The five year old is finding his way towards the top of his class. The other still some days are a teachers challenge..lol. However he too comes home excited about just being good today. Overall this staff should be praised for such consistent work with all the children. My only gripe is the parking log up in the mornings also the afternoon. Not sure why there's no guard or police to help out. Its dangerous exiting the premises especially that parents are exiting or entering the same way with children”

“I would like to thank Susan, who volunteered her time at the USO on January 25-26, 2026. She came in to volunteer the day the airport was closed due to bad weather as we came in from Dubai she welcomed my husband and me to stay at the USO. She was so kind to offer us warm blankets and explain what the USO provides for veterans. Thank you so much, Susan; we appreciate it with all our hearts. You were our little angel.
Thank you to all the volunteers for our veterans ? ❤️”
