The perfect place to either: 1 - donate nice women's clothing (as like-new as possible) to be…read morescored buy women who need something nicer than they are in a position to buy and might need for a job interview, etc., Or: 2 - if you need some clothing to look the way you'd like to be seen for that special opportunity, be sure to stop by and check out Bloom. It won't be a waste of your time. Drop off what is nice but not needed so that someone who really needs it can have it! Note the specific open hours and donations accepted times on their website. Tip re. Dropping off items: Donations are received at the rear of the building, down the immediately adjacent driveway. Back down it if you can. It's difficult to turn a car around at the bottom!

As you may know if you follow my reviews on Thrift stores, I am a reseller, so please remember that…read moreall my reviews of thrift stores are given from that perspective, which may differ from the ordinary shoppers perspective. Marin is the Mecca if you are either an ordinary shopper or a reseller in the high-end resale market this is a fabulous cause as well. They dress people who are looking for a new start and help them get professional clothes to go to interviews and such. The donations for the store come from very nice and wealthy donors in San Francisco and other areas of Marin County. The prices here are amazing. I mostly shop for myself but occasionally find something well enough price that I could resell it. They have a five dollar rack where they put everything that hasn't sold in two months. I found some amazing things on that rack today. I also bought myself some lovely things spent more than five dollars of course but not anywhere near the actual value of these designer pieces if you are anywhere near this place, you must stop by and support this wonderful cause.

They also teach skill building classes in the kitchen. They have a community garden that grows fresh green for the kitchen. They also package and sell sweet and doggy treats. When not teaching cooking and food skills classes, Homeward Bound offers a banquet space that can provide full service meals or just a meeting space. The banquet space has a drop down screen, and built in camera equipment for your high tech needs. Another five stars for Homeward Bound if Marin.

Great resource for nonprofit organizations. Super nice people…read more CVNL is the organizer of the #BayAreaHumanRace which has over the last 3 decades supported the local nonprofit community. Last year there were 1500 runners. The people at CVNL are always super busy so it is best to just stop by and see them if you want something.

Although this used to be a wonderful service to non profits today this is strictly a money making…read moreorganization that really is not run by volunteers but is in business to sell fee for service help to non profits. It in itself is poorly organized and if you are just inquiring to get information there is no receptionist and therefor you must guess as to who you want to talk to from a recorded laundry list of names and departments. If you guess wrong you will just have to hope that that person will refer your name to someone there that can help. My suggestion is that they hire someone to organize them before they attempt to help anyone else.

I grew up as a member of the Ethnic Arts Institute and the world class training has truly enriched…read moremy life. I use to dance and sing with the Hula and African programs, but I gained the greatest benefits from the performance arts part of it. I was very shy and not a very good public speaker. In fact, I had horrible stage fright. But, through the nourishment of this culturally rich program, I am able to travel and have meaningful and gratifying exchanges with people from all walks of life. Even at work, I am able to conduct meetings in front of large groups and to work as a liaison for my company. I would have never even applied for the position, if I had not acquired the self-confidence from this platform. It's hard to put into words what the program has done for my life. The instructor is just beautiful and her teaching style is unparalleled.
