One of the volunteers will meet with you to unlock the gate and show you around. Volunteered w/ my coworker to help Helping Hands Pantry, specifically the gardening area. Their broccoli was ready to be harvested! One of the volunteer POCs, Paul, was kind enough to meet with me to explain the whole process. I've never harvested broccoli so this was a cool experience. All tools (knives, gloves, crates) are provided. My coworker, her daughter and I harvested 12 full crates of organic broccoli. To anyone reading this...please go to their website and sign up for a volunteer spot. This would be perfect for a school or work team building event. I challenge you to help out your local community! :) I will leave you with this... self-love is like gardening. Take time to plant yourself in sunlight and speak kind words to yourself. When you take better care of yourself, you can spread your self-love gift to the world.

Awesome place, awesome people. I been myself started a non profit where I been giving out food to…read morethe homeless and offering supplies out of pocket along with my son since February this year. When I found out about this place through a lady who saw me passing out sandwiches, I couldn't help but extend a hand. So I called and spoke with Luis to see how I could be of assistance and find out about receiving food myself to pass out and this guy and Ms. Ludo were very informative. So me and my son got a rental, headed to the food pantry, and loaded the car up for a trip to the high desert! For those interested in helping this place will guide you every step of the way to make sure you got everything needed. From how to online guides, waiver forums, etc. They even have it mobile app friendly! Just make sure to start early if you're doing deliveries to people's houses so you can see where you're going and to beat the heat. Great bonding and learning experience for me and my son but not only that just a blessing there's a company likes this available to offer such services.

My sister and I usually volunteer the afternoon shift which Iasts for 3 hours, when we have free time.

There are real angels in Southern California. (note: the…read moreaddress listed is NOT accurate to protect the location of the animals often removed from horrific situations. This group is nationwide.) I'm not sure how many actually review charitable non profit rescue groups, but I have to review this one to tell you what kind of work they do and how truly selfless they are (they even helped me with dog that wasn't from Harlee's Angels.) I was down to my last frenchie, outliving my once 5 pack of dogs... She was lonely, wondering where everyone was, why it was so quite and why she was so alone. It was time to consider her crossing that rainbow bridge. My dogs saved me. And here I am again needing to be saved. Enter Harlee's Angels Southern California Division. I was on a site called RescueMe.org and looking into rescuing an english bulldog mix that just really captured my attention. Not much was said about him that I couldn't already see in the pictures. He looked so sweet and innocent and YOUNG. But the scars on his face said otherwise. The story said "bait dog." Harlee's Angels are about rescuing, rehabilitating and adopting out dogs that no one else thinks worthy of help. And trust me they do MORE.. Please see their site. Harlee's Angels provides: "Rescues dogs in county animal shelters that would otherwise be euthanized. Each dog is placed in foster care, receives veterinary care, and sterilization. Foster care for dog surrendered by their owners who either can no longer provide for the pets or no longer wish to have them in their homes. Adoption of rescued dogs to qualified homes that have been properly screened and counseled by our adoption coordinators and foster parents to maintain the pet in the home for a lifetime. Training of leadership team members and volunteers in the areas of humane education, animal welfare, animal behavior and care, and disaster response. Education to the public in the form of counseling, pet behavior consultation and training, Temporary assistance in whatever manner needed, when possible to help families keep their pets." Harlee's Angels Vision "Harlee's Angels is recognized as a major resource for the welfare of homeless, abandoned and abused companion animals in the United States. Our goal is to lower euthanasia rates at county animal controls by: Bringing unwanted dogs into our program for medical, social rehabilitation and re-homing. Providing resources to pet owners to encourage their responsibility and commitment to their pets and prevent them from contributing to the homeless pet population (i.e. spay/neuter awareness, microchipping, etc.). We want to be a valuable resource to our community. We believe that one person can make the difference in the life of an animal in need, so as an organization, we have more strength to help more animals." I applied for Ricky a month after I saw him. But someone had already adopted him. I guess it wasn't meant to be. I was bummed. 2months later, I continued to check out the rescueme.org site and lo and behold Ricky was back for adoption. I'm told the previous owner had personal issues that brought him back. It was fate and he was mine. Today, and 15lbs heavier Ricky is ALL that I want in a dog. Handsome, Sweet, Happy, and Gentle too... he's fit very well into the family dynamics and with training has become a truly obedient and perfect family member. To think someone used him as a bait dog, or others thought he was not rehabilitatable! Wow. I got a true GEM!!!! Please rescue.. if your interested in a dog, please check out Harlee's Angels. There are great animals here and a perfect canine for your family. They will try and match your personality with the right dog. And this group is just the best. They can also board and help you train and assimilate your current dog with the new adoptee. They work so very hard to gives second chances to homeless, abused, neglected dogs.
