Community Services/Non-Profits in Bremerton, WA

“I am an intentional shopper, and I like to stay within a specific budget.

So, I always have a list in my head of items, or furniture that I need, or that I want.

I love, good quality, wood, vintage furniture, and I was able to find two pieces of furniture, and some other items, that I absolutely could not have gotten anywhere else.

The prices were reasonable.

However, for some items that are very rare, they do price accordingly, and that means that those item might be high, but not always.

I feel like I got some really good deals for quality items.

The people that work at the store are always kind, and I really really like that They give lots of items away to the community, and to people who are in need.”

“Have been a member for a very long time. Played in the lunch time basketball pickup games for years. The YMCA has given me a great return on my investment in my health. Highly recommend!”

“This is a great venue for events. Spacious and perfect for our holiday bazaar. The parking lot lights could use a revamp. Kinda dark both in the front and the side. Carry a flashlight after the sun goes down.”

“This store is under new management and is in the process of remodeling. Store looks great, prices are reasonable, and the store is definitely headed In a good direction. Their grand reopening is on Halloween.”

“This is my club as I am a member here. I love the crew of people that volunteer here. I am handicapped now and have a hard time walking. We have great dart tournaments here. Great breakfasts on the weekends.

“I was placed in mandatory treatment by DCYF 20 years ago and agape worked very hard to interface with the agency and helped me get my required classes done. Very accommodating staff, very flexible, and I understand that the attitude and quality of the staff is the same or better at this time. Thank you for all the hard work you do supporting this community. We wouldn't have a shot at wellness without you. My kids thank you too❤”

“Amazing community events, deeply important (and fun) volunteer opportunities, and a truly iconic conservation organization protecting, championing, and celebrating our precious corner of the world.”

“My family and I have been living aboard a Sailboat and everytime I have arrived at some dock in Kitsap County and called for a ride, you guys have come and got me! You have no idea how difficult it is to be in this unique situation trying to survive when needing supplies or getting to a doctor appointment, but your boat comes in at strange locations. You have picked me up on your way to work or came and got me when someone is going off shift and before they went home! That's Service! You guys Rock and I'd rather spend my money on you than any Cab company. Just wanted to let you know you play an important role in this Community and Thank You!”

“Very helpful and cheerful too, had six large roll around garbage can sized containers over two trips handled quickly and efficiently.They were able to shred papers, hard drives and digital media of all types. Be sure to separate the products to make everyone's life easier. Good people.”

“Best shelter we have ever stayed at. Clean, organized, and a safe place both for children and pets. They have a large enough staff to safely and cleanly provide showers, laundry services, sleeping quarters, and meals to all that come through. What was especially helpful for our family is the security as our family has had issues with harassment even in the family shelters and low income housing apartments and it is very important for mental health reasons that we do not deviate from our set schedule.”

“This is for the Clare location, not sure why it says Wheaton. There were a lot of new faces at the front and they made the atmosphere very cheerful and comfortable. They were kind, to each other and to everyone who came in. They seemed to care about doing a good job.”

“I recently completed a Microsoft Word and Google Docs class at Goodwill in Bremerton, WA, and I couldn’t be more impressed with the experience. Dr. Sarah Movius created a welcoming environment to learn, making it easy to stay engaged and build confidence from day one. The class was well-structured, practical, and incredibly useful for everyday life and future opportunities. At 46, I can honestly say it’s never too late to learn something new, and this program proved that to me. If you’ve been thinking about picking up new life skills, don’t hesitate—reach out and get it done. The support and encouragement throughout the course made a real difference in my success. I’m very impressed with my new skill set and feel much more capable moving forward. Thank you, Goodwill, and thank you, Dr. Movius, for such a valuable experience.”

“Edit: the receptionist working in the building to the left of the walk in clinic, perhaps the dental side, wouldn’t know because she refused to clarify, is extremely rude. I walked into the wrong entrance, stood in a really long line, and when I got to her I asked if this was the walk in clinic. She was extremely rude, rolling her eyes, calling me sweetie (mind you she was probably 5-10 years younger than me), when all I asked was for clarification on what services her part of the building offered. I have Amazon AWS Premera insurance. I do not need to give you guys my business and I no longer will.

I needed a TB test for work and this is the clinic on my insurance card. I called to see if I could get in and the person helping me on the phone was extremely kind and helpful. He scheduled me an appointment later this month and told me to come to the extended hours clinic to see if they would do the test for me. The people working the front desk were extremely kind, helpful, welcoming, and charismatic. The wait was 2.5 hours but I didn't mind. They have AC and I have my phone to play on. Plus it was all free so of course I don't mind waiting. The lady who took me back and did my blood pressure was extremely kind and gentle. She was very apologetic for my wait. The doctor was also very kind and caring. I could go down the list with everyone I encountered and say the same thing. Just very nice people. Everyone I came into contact with at the clinic was wonderful. When I was waiting to get my TB test, the nurse or doctor at the computer started making small talk with me and I thought that was fun. The girl doing my TB test was very gentle and it was her first time giving one to someone, she did great. I don't mind being a guinea pig because I used to be a dialysis technician. When I came back to get my test read, there was a disgruntled patient and the admin and doctors handled it with grace and maturity. I can't say enough how impressed I am.”

“I received mental health counseling through KMH and I loved my counselor. They were flexible with my schedule, offering reoccurring schedules and zoom option. The staff are pleasant and helpful. They are very accommodating and offer a relaxing environment and trauma informed care.”
