4101 Eisenhower Ave, Alexandria“Adopted Akela (formally Kesha) a few weeks back and we are loving getting to know each other! Everyday Akela’s personality comes out a little bit more and he ended up being quite a goofy dog. Akela loves meeting friends on our walks or lounging around all afternoon. He is the perfect little addition into my life style. The AWLA helped recommend our new vet and even covered the initial exam fee. We look forward to supporting them in the future!”
“David was super nice and helpful on the phone. Went over and beyond with what I needed. Was down to earth and talked to me like a real person, not just another customer. Very personable.”
“We visited here for a kindergarten school field trip. The farmers and educators were a fantastic resource, they walked us around everywhere. It is important to note that the entrance is the same as Woodlawn, it's very confusing and there aren't that many signs. There is a lot to do here, but it is a farm so you're going to get messy!It's a sustainable farm, so lots of interesting ways to farm without pesticides.”
“One of the friendliest posts in the United States. Right in the middle of historic Alexandria. In the Gatsby inOriginally built 1785. YesGeorge WashingtonGet drink there, and he did sleep there”
“Volunteer Alexandria is the largest volunteer organization in Alexandria that I know about, and they have a wide range of opportunities/organizations in the area that you can support. Their web portal is easy to use to find opportunities and contact the volunteer managers to arrange service. The staff is friendly and helpful.”
“Founded and run by God-fearing, honest Muslims who have truly dedicated their lives to helping the most needy in practically every part of the globe.

“This Goodwill is one of the most organized stores that I have ever visited. Love the fact that they organize and tag the clothing by size making it so much easier to find.”

801 S Payne St, Alexandria“During the worst of covid they provided food every other weekend almost. Now it's just once a month but each time we get chicken eggs bread fresh vegetables (this time it was a huge bag of onions and 10 lb of carrots) along with rice, beans, pancake mix, and canned food. And the army of volunteers are fantastic. I go to the Nova site and it's well run.”
“It's nice, but the indoor pickleball court lines look like an electronic circutboard and are impossible to follow. I just guess and hit the ball to where I think it's safe.”

“My daughter have been with Alive since she was 2, he has been a wonderful experience from the begging, everyone in here care a LOT about the kids, if feels personal, nurturing and helpful with everyone all the time, is a small and beautiful community, no judgments, just help, they have always been so understandable and supportive with me and my daughter (I'm a single mom with a crazy work schedule). My daughter is my life, she has never been not even one day under care of a babysitter or anyone not blood related to her, this is the only people that has always make me feel safe enough to leave my daughter every day with them, she is always happy and likes her school. Thank you everyone in Alive! Ms. Pam, Ms. Flow, Ms. Silvia, Ms. Aster, and everyone else who have been part of my daughter happines.”
“I remember as a child how the Salvation Army helped veterans with job training and helped those with housing insecurities find shelter. As a social worker, I have had great experiences reaching out to the Salvation Army for assistance with my clients. The people that work and volunteer for this organization really care!”
“Very creative store that's a great idea for art teachers, artists, or people with general art related hobbies! However, I'd be more open to accepting donations. Doing it by appointment seems rather odd, If it were me, I'd take whatever I could and sort it that way. There were a lot of really great items. However, some of it seemed a bit useless. I do pride myself in finding ways to recycle old things into art, but some of this stuff could serve no further purposes. Either way, it's a great idea, and a great store!”
