“this is one of my favorite thrift stores. all the money goes to helping animals, you can adopt a cat here as the upstairs houses cats for adoption, all of the volunteers are very nice n go above n beyond, and the prices are unbeatable. I don't want to write this great review because I want to be greedy n keep this gem for myself but they truly deserve to be recognized for the glorious job they do.”
“Creative Reuse is my favorite place on Earth. It is SO easy to find tons of strange, interesting and rare items here that one otherwise wouldn't be able to find elsewhere! I go almost every month to stock up on random cassette tapes to see what's on them (some great indie music finds here if you dig around), newspaper clippings and as many vintage Pittsburgh magnets possible. If you like crafts and unconventional decorations, this place is definitely for you!
Also, everyone that works here is super nice and the prices are usually super reasonable. Every bad review saying otherwise has either never stepped foot in Creative Reuse or are people who don't believe retail employees deserve respect. This is a store that should never go away!”

“Coming from someone who runs a lot of marathons across the US, the Pittsburgh Marathon is by far the most organized, the most entertaining, and has the best course. The live music, cheering sections, and route that allows for family/friends to watch from multiple places throughout the race really makes this event awesome!”
“We booked a fishing adventure for my son's 12th birthday. They handled all the arrangements and Sara was so patient answering my millions of questions. On the day-of, Mel and Dan were friendly, helpful and communicative. They brought everything we needed for my son and his 7 friends to enjoy fishing for a few hours. The location in North Park was beautiful and perfect. It was even wheelchair accessible for our friend who had a broken leg. Thank you Venture Outdoors for a memory my son won't soon forget!”

“They don't take my insurance so they provide me FREE COUNSELING, with someone who is going for a higher degree and doing clinicals or something to that effect. What ever it is and however it works out its good. I get counseling once a week online. And this is the most comfortable I've been with a counselor in years. It's way better than alot of places my insurance paid for. And the staff are very nice and helpful and supportive.”

“I Went to give blood at a drive so I only saw what I think would normally be a conference room. But I know they have drives there frequently so this may help.I was able to park in the lot between the Red Cross building and Guardian Storage. If you walk behind the building you'll come to some steps that lead up to a courtyard.Cross the yard to the sidewalk and follow it left into where the building makes a U shape. There's a door on the right (ignore it) and a little further along there's a door to the left that lets you in near where blood donation is done.A left once you're inside will take you to the blood donation room.”
“What a wonderful group of people, many of whom are volunteers. We talked, laughed and got to know each other in a matter of minutes.
I had old paint, LOTS OF IT. I made an appointment through City Environmental Services, drove up on Saturday morning and was amazed at the kindness, friendliness and the efficiency of the people who unloaded 30 -cans of old paint from the back of my car in two minutes. I'll never forget the father from St. Louis visiting his daughter for the weekend. She was a volunteer for the hazardous waste event. He willingly spent the morning helping out too.
Thank you PRC and all those great folks who made what could have been an onerous task easy and delightful.
I'm sharing my experience with my neighbors. They also have old paint they want to get rid of.
Marilyn Brooks”

“I do not even know where to begin about how pleased I am with the day school. My son has improved so much in so many years coming to the school. The dedication with every area of the school is amazing. I am highly recommending anyone that qualifies for this excellent care.”
“I was a milk donor and the staff was very friendly and communicative. They took time to explain the process and answer amy questions. If I could donate again I would def do it. But for now I will donate in other means. I love the cause.”
“For those that have never gifted their time then they may not understand, but more so for those that have been on the receiving end of this organization, feel like they could never repay the greatness that is Ronald McDonald house. For years we have donated time and energy for those in need.
Imagine waking up as any normal day, for a few hours in your child needs to be life flighted hours away and you are told get in or drive. No chance to grab your wallet, a change of clothes or possibly even your phone to reach out to those that might be able to help. You arrive at children's hospital as quick as humanly possible, your child is rushed into life saving surgery, told they will be in the hospital for weeks. Your family doesn't have reserve funds to pay for a hotel, and the RMH reaches out because a case worker called them. They can provide you with basic help, in a time of more need then you have ever experienced they will give you that glimmer of hope, that glimmer that someone still cares and has your back.
That was the story the team I was with was told as we served dinner. We simply made food and dropped goody bags with basic essentials for those in need. The woman shared her child had contracted swine flu, not during its peak scare, not when there was ever a concern, or even a warning sign. The child lived in a rural area near Erie pa. He went to play with friends, and dropped over playing catch with 2 other friends. Nobody knew why, he left in the morning without even sniffle to go play, 3 hours later he was slow hed over barely able to breathe.
Children's Hospital saved that child's life, and Ronald McDonald House saved that family. The mother stayed with him for weeks, she couldn't spend time with him without being owned from head to toe, no time to plan housing or even grab a wallet to buy food but she arrived 3 hours from home and never left. That was totally made possible by RMH and those that donate time, and money to help feed those staying there.”
“This place is a gem. Polite staff and great facilities. The gym is a bit outdated and definitely doesn't have everything you need but you can still get a workout in. The pool is terrific and the basketball court is a huge plus.”
“I did research and found Advantage Credit and was very relieved I did. My debt was growing due to interest rates going up I needed help. From my first interaction the staff was kind. They are very responsive to any question or issue I had. I felt comfortable communicating with them They never made me feel bad. I would recommend their services, I contacted them both via email and phone and got quick answers for any issue.”
