Food on the Move is one of my favorite nonprofits. They focus on transforming food deserts into…read morefood-secured areas through food distribution, educational programs, workforce development, health assessments, and innovative solutions. Taylor Hanson started it in 2014 after being inspired by U.N. Ambassador Edward J. Perkins (he oversaw the end of South Africa's apartheid government and the release of Nelson Mandela while serving as the US Ambassador to South Africa). They host mobile food events and foster the return of permanent grocery stores and healthy food systems. Their monthly Community Events bring together partners, health resources, and have a pay-as-you-can model for fresh produce and prepared meals. They make it fun by having local DJs, food trucks, art classes, and more. They also have community gardens and teach an afterschool program in schools focused on teaching innovative urban farming systems, like hydroponics. I'm super excited for them to build their Food Home, which will be a community space with a market, urban farm, and food hub. I learn so much about the importance of micro greens and sustainable food practices from them.

"you have never really LIVED until you have done something for someone who can never repay you" ----Mother Theresa My family and I are forever grateful to the great souls at this hospice house. Many thanks to the staff and the great folks that donate to the hospice house. Although, we haven't lost our loved one as of yet, one week at the hospice house and we feel so supported. Going through these tough days are easier by visits from priests (at least 3 times a week), food prepared daily, attentive staff, and all the comforts of home. I can not say thank you enough!!! My loved one feels better about transitioning knowing that prayer comes from 90 year old priests and deacons that have traveled as missionaries throughout the world (with more than 65-70 years of serving under their belt). I think my loved one is in good hands!

This is a hospice residence on the campus of Catholic Charities on North Harvard. Towards the end…read moreof my moms life journey this place stepped up and made her last days as good as possible given her state. The property is only about 3 yrs old but looks brand new on the inside and outside. I believe they can house up to twelve guests although while my mom was there there were only 2, including my mom. The staff was nothing but kind and focused on treating their guests respectfully. It is NOT a medical facility, there aren't IV's everywhere and noisy equipment. The rooms are comfortable with TV's and Amazon Alexa to provide music. Normally (outside of this covid stupidity) there is access to a nice outside garden area, a chapel, and an inside social area.Hospice nurses check regularly on the guests to make sure they are as comfortable as possible.The staff not only check on the guests regularly but also check on the guests of the guest. In my moms case it seemed at first her meds weren't making her comfortable. The staff here noticed exactly the same thing so when the hospice nurses came by they worked with them to insure my mom was medicated adequately. I can't say enough about the staff. Hospice work HAS to be one of the hardest jobs on a persons physical AND mental well being. I know that I would be wholly inadequate to do this work and I really appreciate the folks that make it their calling. If you have to bring a loved one to this place I can say that they will be cared for and respected. Go to their website portacaeli.org and give them any support you can, this is a worthy ministry.

Fab Lab (fabrication laboratory) is a nonprofit in Kendall Whittier that provides access to…read moreadvanced manufacturing and digital fabrication tools, equipment, technology and resources. If you're ever curious about checking this makers space out, they have tours every Saturday at 1pm. It's an amazing facility. The building opened in 2022 and it was made just for them so it's a huge upgrade from their previous location, where they were for 11 years. They now have an open floor plan with high ceilings and lots of natural light along with 20+ machines available. From laser cutters/engravers to water jets and 3D printers, the resources they offer are mind blowing. Fab Lab Tulsa is one of 1500+ MIT-chartered Fab Labs in 90+ countries and the first in the southeastern region of the U.S. (that's right, not even Dallas has one). Aside from the studio on the first floor, they have a metal lab and a wood lab, each with 10+ machines available. Both labs have a minimum age and require PPE to be worn at all times. The second floor has classrooms and a conference room. They have a membership model with lots of options depending on how many hours per month you'd like to have as well as what room. The pricing starts at $39 a month, which sounds like an incredible deal since you get to use machines that are $30-60k. Classes are also available for signup on their website along with education programming for kids. They have a couple of workforce initiatives as well. This is a huge asset in our community!

My wife and I can not thank Brad enough for what he was able to accomplish with us during our…read moresessions with him. We are in a MUCH better place in our marriage than we were a few months ago, and it's all thanks to his hard work and expertise. The approach he uses was something I was completely unfamiliar with, and was incredibly effective. We never really got into who was right or wrong in a given situation, but focused more on the emotions and cycles that caused us to get into those situations in the first place. I was able to open up during our sessions in a way that I didn't really think was possible. I'm still pretty blown away by the whole experience. For anyone even considering, if you're reading these reviews... you need to do your marriage a favor and at least check it out. Us tackling these issues early on in our marriage will definitely prove to be one of the best decisions we've made when we look back, I can guarantee it. We understand each other better, and even understand things about ourselves that we never would have without his assistance. Thanks again for everything you've done for us Brad, you are definitely a beacon of hope in any struggling marriage, hopefully these reviews will help point people in the right direction so that they may find the path back towards happiness with you as their guide, like we have. Mike

Completely surprisingly, however, after 7 weeks of counseling, I found myself again believing that we had a hope for a future together. Not long later, I moved back in. The counseling/counselor warned us it wouldn't be all sunshine and roses after moving back in, but it prepared us for handling times when issues arose and working on and through things - together - without a counselor present. We just celebrated our 4 year wedding anniversary this last June. If not for Brad (our counselor, the man in that photo) and Marriage Solutions, we certainly would not have made it to that anniversary. HIGHLY RECOMMEND. 10 stars out of 5.
