Since I'm new to the area, I wanted to explore the neighborhood, and when I saw their sign, I became curious. I wasn't sure if they operated like Goodwill or the Salvation Army, so I entered, hoping to learn more about what they do. Now, for context, I'm a 5'2" Asian female, carrying nothing but my sun hat--no bags or anything else. As I stepped inside, I noticed a bulletin board and took a moment to read the materials posted there. After that, I walked a few feet toward an area where people were sitting, seemingly waiting for their turn to enter the main floor to pick out clothes and household items. You could call it a reception or waiting area. As I stood there, simply observing the environment and the process, an older lady approached me and asked what I was doing there. I replied, "I'm just browsing." Then, out of nowhere, a younger staff member suddenly hollered at me from an inside office in a hostile tone, telling me I wasn't supposed to be there. I was shocked by this reaction. I was simply standing outside the main area, reading posted information and observing--nothing disruptive or inappropriate. Instead of being welcoming or helpful, the staff treated me with suspicion and unnecessary hostility for no valid reason. This kind of reaction seems completely out of place for a charity whose mission is to serve and assist the community. If they are so quick to act hostile toward someone who is just looking in, I can't help but wonder how they treat those who actually need their services. I hope Clothes Closet and Food Pantry of Orange Park reconsiders its approach to interacting with the public. A more welcoming and understanding attitude would be much more in line with their mission.

There was a fantastic variety of healthy plants that were ready to come home with me. And at very reasonable prices compared to what you'll find at big box stores. The clubhouse is spacious and beautifully landscaped with an adorable freshly painted outdoor shed and plenty of room for parking. They meet monthly with several events and Master Garden speakers and special guests throughout the year. The members are so sweet and approachable, I actually spent a couple of hours just chatting with them. If you're looking for a great group of people and interested in plants and gardening, this is the place to be for sure. So much local wisdom under one roof right in the heart of Orange Park.

Food is organized for the purpose of providing for the appropriate amount of food for the appropriate amount of people. The food comes from a lot of different sources, but with the same heart of Love and Hope. There is a group of volunteers that also like to help out by providing prayer support to the individual cars as they are awaiting their turn in the drive thru line.

Once upon a time I was diagnosed with Breast Cancer and bombarded with information, advice and my…read moreemotions that were all over the map. I had already been involved with American Cancer Society through Relay for Life at my kids local high school and my scout troop (at the time) volunteered for set up, clean up and we always had some sort of fundraising booth at the event. In a blink I became a recipient of their services. Not every knows but American Cancer Society gives the bulk of their donations to research to find a cure. They also are involved within each community providing numerous services for those battling cancer and for their caregivers. They can offer driving services for treatments, various mental health services either in group settings or one on one counseling. They also have a tremendous online community and even an online journaling option. I utilized both the online services and the therapy during my treatment. At the time I was newly divorced and had three teenagers. My mental health during treatment was paramount. I have a friend of the family who is a breast cancer research doctor- on the front line trying to understand the cancer and finding a cure and she told me that hands down- American Cancer Society donates the most amount of their incoming funds to research. Especially for Breast Cancer research. Other big name Breast Cancer non-profits don't even compare. Their reach within the community and on a much bigger scale has always made me a fierce supporter of ACS. Making Strides is their breast cancer walk/run/fundraiser. But they are making a huge impact across all cancers. I have participated in years of events for the organization and will always consider them as one of my top choices for donating time and/or money.
