They have a convenient area for you to drive up, and their volunteers are super nice and will be more than happy to help you lift and unload your donations. Donation receipts available upon request.

Great organization, great cause, great people…read more I had the pleasure of learning more about the OC Rescue Mission and its efforts after signing up for their Annual Turkey Trot this year. Upon bib pickup I learned that the rescue mission accepts donations, offers housing assistance, basic needs assistance and health services to at risk and homeless individuals and their families in Orange County. They also have onsite facilities for housing support, counseling, and educational opportunities. A great organization supporting so many in our community.

One for service, four for merchandise…read more After I bought something, they never offered to help carry it out despite it being an awkward piece. At every HfH I've ever been to which is now 7, this and the San Jose store have the same level of I don't care type service. I asked if I could use a cart, they say yeah and pointed to them. I tried to put it in the cart and the top fell because it's awkward. They laughed at me, rather than HELP a customer. I stood up and said do you guys help people to their car? The woman, who had a nasty attitude from jump said to the man "do we still help people to their car?" (they are nowhere near closing time) and he said yes. He carried one half I carried the other. He didn't say a word. He also had laughed after she said something when I dropped the top. Not sure what's going on in her world that's she is so unhappy and needs to project it onto others while at work, and disappointed in him for following her lead, but in any case, that is never how you should treat a human or any customer. We had zero exchange prior, so not sure where her energy is coming from but not ok to emit negativity. The merchandise is nice. They have a good selection and pricing is reasonable. Small location so probably have to catch these guys early to get the hot items. Parking is limited. Not sure I'll be back, there were two other very nice women I interacted with that were super helpful. One Filipina I believe and one maybe white or latina and tall. The woman behind the register was latina short story and the gentleman was tall dark haired and also Latino. Sharing as I imagine the head manager of it's not that woman may want to know. The gentleman who helped also seemed like he was the manager so there's that. Hopefully someone in charge with some mature sense can read this and coach them to be better humans.

I had to review it because it would have been nice to know ahead of time what to expect. I will make this short, because I already typed a long review and my explorer page closed...crap. Overall it was fun because I was with some good friends, but this was a sort of backward event...the food was better than the wine. There were a few good wineries that I tasted, most of which I already knew about, but overall a bunch of turpintine in a Riedel glass. Although I was outbid on a good case of wine at the silent auction, I did have a winning raffle ticket for a "gold medal" bottle of port. Can't complain too much. Notables: I knew he'd be there which was one of the main draws to go, but if you get the chance, try some of Kenneth Volk's wine...really great wine from the Central Coast. Trust me. Especially the Pinot Noir. Mad Mike's Gourmet Sausages - he was having a sausage tasting of some of his different types....pretty good stuff and we left with some. Overall, good time, but wouldn't go back.

Child Creativity Lab is somewhere where kids can build and create crafts and mixed media sculptures…read morewith re-purposed items and have the best time doing it. Child Creativity Lab takes donated every day items (Lego pieces, empty prescription containers, bottle caps, buttons, wine corks, new popsicle sticks as well as excess items from various companies (excess fabric, plastic bottles, paint, pins, tacks, glue, zippers, etc.) and they put them together in a package so that kids can assemble them them and create a figure like a robot or animal out of all the parts. Before COVID they used to have in house workshops, but now they take the party out to the kids in city community centers, schools, etc. My friend planned a service event here so I came over to help out for a couple of hours. All the parts for the project were laid out at various stations and we went down like an assembly line and filled bags with the items to create a project-in-a-bag for each child. If I was a kid in elementary school receiving a project bag like this to put together with other classmates, I would be totally stoked. If you are interested in donating common household items for them to use, give them a call to see what they do and don't take. You can also arrange to do a service event here with your organization, they have people come in every week to help out. We need more places like this in all communities!

Make sure you login to the website and checkout locations and dates and register yourself for openings. It's great to come with family, friends or coworker. They have many different ways you can volunteer your time or just put a shoebox together and drop it off at a processing location. We had a good time joining a team on the floor and were given a little training and we went to work for a couple of hours. My first job was to scan shoe boxes that people had donated and wanted it tracked. It was kinda boring as those were infrequent so I switched over to checking shoe boxes that were donated making sure they didn't have certain items not permitted in the box. After awhile I switch to taping boxes shut after the inspection process which worked out fine as I was constantly working. Checkout the website and see how you can help. https://www.samaritanspurse.org/operation-christmas-child/volunteer-network/

So my family first started participating in this organization's Operation Christmas Child a few…read moreyears ago and it's now become a family tradition with us even filling up shoe boxes at home to bring to the processing center and volunteering at the actual processing center. For those who aren't familiar with Sumaritan's Purse, they are a Christian-base nonprofit that provides aids to areas of need here in the U.S and third world countries. They were actually one of the first responders to bring aid to rural areas that were hit by a big typhoon in Central Vietnam in 2017. Air lifting over 200,000 POUNDS of supplies to the villagers who have lost everything. Operation Christmas Child is one of their projects that takes place from Nov-Dec. You can watch one of their videos of this operation on YouTube. Which was how I found them actually. The idea is that you take a shoe box and decorate it and fit anything you can into a shoe box for a child in a third world country (socks, soap, toothbrushes, hair brushes, a small toy, pens, pencil).And then you can drop off the shoe boxes at their processing center by a certain deadline (and if you pay for a tracking label) you can track where your shoe box may end up. OR you can sign up to volunteer during the holidays at the processing center to inspect the shoe boxes or even stuff shoe boxes (companies donate supplies that you can put into boxes). The whole operation is so efficient , to watch one group inspect, one group stuff more gifts in light boxes, one group tape and one group organize the shoeboxes into bigger boxes with tracking labels is really a sight to behold. EVERYONE that you come across are EXCEEDINGLY nice and gracious, from the parking attendant, to the front desk/lobby people to the people running the warehouse. I do understand how Sumaritan's Purse could come as "too much" for people who are not Christians who wants to help. However, I think this organization is truly doing something not just special but extremely meaningful that could change a child's life in a small village some where in the world. With a simple gift from a stranger a world away, to let the child know that they matter, and you you could also include a letter if you wish. Sumaritan's Purse really goes out of their way to deliver the shoeboxes into rural areas often times using elephants to do so! Operation Christmas Child only goes on from Nov to mid Dec (before Christmas because they have to get the shoeboxes out of the U.S. before than)! Cheers!
