“McShin has shown me a better way of life. They taught me how to rebuild my life from the ground up, and how to stay clean and sober while doing so. The staff is amazing and will go the extra mile for anyone who wants to make a better life with out drugs and alcohol. I am forever grateful for this program! ?”
“I’ve been a member of Vintage Boxing Gym for about a year and a half, and I can confidently say it’s the best gym I’ve ever joined. The atmosphere feels like a family, and the facilities are excellent. I’ve not only learned how to box properly but also built confidence, discipline, and a strong, fit physique. Coach Eric and the entire team are knowledgeable, supportive, and genuinely invested in helping members succeed. I’m so grateful to be part of this community and couldn’t recommend it more!”
“Great park with tons of activities. Lots of cool and novel equipment for the kids to play and learn on. This is not your cookie cutter park straight of of a catalog. This park is fully fenced in so kids can have thier freedom and a smattering of things for all ages and abilities.”
“If you use the YMCA Richmond Android app, your account may get into a state where the app will completely stop working. I have worked with staff, and there is no fix. You must use the web application in your phone's browser. This isn't so bad - the web application lets you do everything the app would.”

“This shop is ran by the sweetest ladies ever! So organized and I never leave empty handed. Especially with such amazing, actual thrift store prices! I always donate here, and know that everything is going to a great cause and back into my community!”
“I couldn’t believe my good fortune in finding this co-op! Such a great mission and it’s a great way to meet new bike friends and to learn how to wrench on your bike at the same time. Everyone is a volunteer, so there’s no one pushing to sell you something. I came in there wanting to change out my drop handlebar for a flat bar. Sounds easy, but was really quite a project. I worked with Luke, a 20+ year bike tech veteran. He was a patient teacher and I learned a lot. He was also an inventive problem solver. There were a few times when I thought we were at a standstill and then Luke would magically pull out just the right part from the endless bins-of donated parts just waiting for the exact right application to have a second life. If you’re a fan of “Reduce, Reuse, Recycle” and don’t mind getting your hands dirty, and love “talking shop” about bikes, you have to check this place out. They even have a legit commercial espresso machine to keep everyone’s spirits high!”
“Our kids love the kitty room! The day we went there were three cats, and each of the three kids attached to one. It really helped as they've been processing the disappearance of our family's cat.”
“This place has some of the best staff I've ever seen. The people who is/was here staying in the other rooms are amazing. My stay was absolutely amazing. Everything was so clean and organized. The staff really take care of this place. Much love from Darrel Mindy and Peyton.”
“The absolutely kindest staff! Myself and a few other new recruits stopped in on the way to basic and we were like kids in a candy store! They were so nice about answering our questions and made sure we were comfortable. The USO is my new favorite part of being active duty!”

“This is a really cool place for those who like to craft on a budget. If you need it, they probably have it, and the prices are super low. Not in the greatest section of town, I wouldn't go after dark, and parking is limited, but worth the trip!”

“The Richmond Fencing Club is amazing! Friendly, welcoming, very spacious and well equipped. So glad I stopped by to visit, and I can't wait to join! Looking forward to taking epee classes this February. Cheers!”
“I have been a longtime member of Antioch Recreation Association and I can't rave enough about the experience. If you're looking for a peaceful, uncrowded place to unwind, this is it! The atmosphere is perfect for a relaxing day in the sun without large crowds. The lifeguards are very attentive and professional, ensuring that everyone feels safe while still maintaining a very welcoming vibe. Their friendly smiles and occasional chats made the experience more enjoyable. The snack workers are not only efficient but also they care about customer satisfaction. Whether it’s a quick snack or a refreshing drink, everything was served with a cheerful attitude and awesome service. The manager was visible throughout my visit, checking in on guests and staff alike, making sure everything ran smoothly. Their dedication to maintaining a clean, welcoming, and safe environment is much appreciated. Antioch Recreation Association is a great escape, and the staff make it a place you’ll want to return to. I highly recommend!”
“Purchased a dishwasher, new in box for a third of cost. They have used everything too. Doors, cabinets etc and all kinds of household items and appliances. Tools, paint, flooring. But if you see it buy it! Too great a price to hold out. Never know what you might find.”
“The par-3 course is an easy walk and one of the few golf options in the city. The driving range gets busy on a nice day, but again, a product of limited public golf options nearby”
“Thank you Megan and Billy and all the crew at Boaz and Ruth - - you and your organization are a vital, valued, central feature to our neighborhood, far beyond the population that is your primary focus.”
“Since joining the MBL I’ve gained access to resources I would have never known existed for a micro business like myself. I am so pleased with the results and will be coming up on my one year anniversary soon!”
“I've stopped here a few years back when they had vegetable sales and/or a special event (selling food). They showed me their list of programs for helping people in the community and I was very impressed. The building, parking lot and gardens are always in top condition.”
“A nice location where students in residence were actively preparing an art exhibition for Friday August 4th, 2023. Pictures were not allowed, so I took pictures of the front of the building and vicinity.”
“This was an amazing place for us in the 70's, 80's and 90's. Saw Mr. Bob for the first time in over 35 years. Almost brought tears to my eyes. Thank you for believing in us, Gilpin Court babies!!”
“Love this place, always in and out, the staff at the front desk are so polite and well mannered and Dr. Murchie is the best such a thorough doctor every visit. I am happy to consider this place my doctor’s office.”

“We had a wonderful experience donating through Feed More! We were able to run a food drive through our school. They answered all of our questions promptly via phone & email. They went above and beyond with helping us organize and deliver goods through a field trip. Donation boxes were provided and shopping carts were able to help us move goods in & out quickly. Will be donating through them again!”

“I would like to take a moment to share my sincere appreciation for Katelyn, the caseworker at St. Joseph’s Villa who has been working with Achilles. From the very beginning, she has been incredibly thorough, compassionate, and professional. Her ability to offer sound wisdom and practical guidance during such a challenging time has truly meant a great deal to our family.
I have sought care and support from multiple places, including VCU Children’s Hospital, and I can honestly say that the level of care, attentiveness, and personal investment we have received from Katelyn at St. Joseph’s Villa has been unmatched. She goes above and beyond, not just doing her job, but genuinely caring for the children and families she serves.
Katelyn follow-through, attention to detail, and consistent communication have been exceptional. She has been a steady and trustworthy resource throughout Achilles’ behavioral challenges, and her dedication is both evident and admirable.
She is truly an extraordinary individual, and St. Joseph’s Villa is fortunate to have her. I wholeheartedly commend her for her outstanding work and unwavering commitment. Quite simply, she has been wonderful—and in my opinion, she absolutely deserves recognition! Thank you Katelyn!”
“I often shop here and there are lots of great finds, but I have to share my deepest appreciation for Emmy and Pat. I accidentally donated a pair of brand new pants that my son got as a Christmas gift, and never thought we'd see them again. We went by the store the next morning after realizing and they took our contact information and must have shared it with some other employees, because I went back by after work and spoke with Pat in the store who listened to my issue and we were joined by store manager Emmy who had heard about our quest for these pants and after speaking with me, remembered seeing them and somehow went in the back and FOUND THEM! I was so very grateful as was my son and I just wanted to say how awesome they were!”
