“My husband and I agreed that it was time to adopt but with my cancer treatments, we knew we needed a calm, low maintenance dog. The selection process was low-pressure, very thorough and informative for us both. Meg helped us choose Lyra - a beautiful calm Saluki from Bahrain and when we found out she had some health issues, the program jumped right in to offer support, flexibility and whatever we needed to be sure she was taken care of. Lyra has become my husband's best friend through my illness and she adds so much joy and happiness to our lives.
From application, to adoption, and now post-adoption. Meg and Bobbie, along with the vet staff, have all been incredibly communicative, supportive, and helpful not only in ensuring that we got a dog that fit our needs but nearly a year later, they're continuing to invest time and energy and effort to make sure we're still doing well. Everyone at the facility, is incredible and we couldn't recommend them more.”
“It was an easy process. I made a phone call to Goodwill. The phone representative walked me through the process even that the tow truck driver will call an hour before arrival, which he did.ThanksErnest”

“I had the best experience at snipes farm! The owner was extremely kind about refunding me when mistakingly I got charged twice… they were so kind and the farm was so fun. I brought my 5 year old and he absolutely loved it. Not to mention the price was amazing and super affordable!”
“I joined last Thursday and went to my first class (Zumba) today. I came in after the class had already started but the instructor seemed very happy that I decided to join in after watching all of the fun that they were having. I really enjoyed it. I felt very comfortable. I have arthritis in my knees so I kept it low impact. The class has been over for 2 1/2 hours now but I still feel the endorphins. I even feel calm which is very unusual for me. I wanted to thank the instructor for a great class and making me feel so welcome but many others wanted to talk to her too. I hope she will see this though. Can’t wait to come back for more Zumba and to try Aqua Aerobics too.”

“Every month for approximately three years, we have eagerly anticipated food delivery day! Absolutely the BEST way, bar none, to spend a Sunday morning. There is much hunger in the world so it is incredibly satisfying to assist in lending a hand to our neighbors who may be struggling. JRA is a wonderful nonprofit led by a terrific president (Amy) and volunteer organizer (Melissa). They accomplish Herculean feats on a shoestring.”

“I would like to thank the phlebotomy specialist Samira W for the wonderful job she did on Saturday, October 20th at the Red Cross Blood, Platelet and Plasma Donation Center on Rhawn St in NE Philly. Everything went so smoothly, I was in and out in less than 45 minutes. I highly recommend this place and especially Samira. The breakfast bars and chocolate chip cookies were delicious. Thanks again.”
“We had a great experience adopting our two new fur babies through Rescue Purrfect. Despite being a volunteer run organization (IE, they aren't always fully staffed), they responded to my application and did a reference check within a few days of my submission. We went directly to one of their fosters to meet our cats and it was very clear that the cats were truly loved during their time with the foster! Ultimately we would absolutely go through Rescue Purrfect again if/when we're looking to adopt another cat!”
