Alicia took it upon herself to provide us with materials and explain the two "Senior Centers." The first thing to know is that they are public and open to everyone although the offerings are geared towards older people.

(Most of all, they have Alicia.)

Look at all the good that comes out of being a creepy cyber-stalker!…read more How I found The Kids Need to Read Foundation: 1) Saw Buffy. 2) Saw Angel. 3) Developed unhealthy obsession to Joss Whedon. 4) Searched out Joss Whedon Movies. 5) Discovered Serenity. 6) Bought Firefly boxed set. 7) Developed unhealthy obsession to Sci-Fi western genre. 8) Saw "Waitress" with Nathan Fillion. 9) Googled Nathan Fillion movies. 10) Saw Kids Need to Read listed on Google. 11) Wrote an email. 12) Donation of free new books was made to my school library in a little over a month. I have had the pleasure of interacting online with Denise from this foundation, and through her, my school library has become the recipients of a donation of badly needed books. Considering the budget cuts our school is going to have to endure yet again this year, we can't stretch the money any further. Therefore, new books are out of the question. However, with a little luck and my somewhat obsessive geek love of Joss Whedon, I found The Kids Need to Read Foundation. Generally, I pride myself on knowing ALL of the sites where teachers can get on their knees and unabashedly beg for free supplies. I, myself, am shameless. But, hey...teachers like me are on the ball. In this day and age, we need to be ridiculously creative and excessively Internet savvy to find money to pay for our "MUST HAVE" items that enhance the education of our students. One can only do so much with a stick of chalk and a busted overhead projector, people. Nathan Fillion (Firefly's Captain Tightpants for you Whedon cult-members out there) and author PJ Haarsma (The Softwire series) teamed up and established this foundation in 2007 because of a common love of education and reading. They strive to encourage a love of reading in children who would not normally find resources, which is a goal we should all share. Kudos to all foundations that foster a love of reading in all our students. And to all of you generous peeps who donate books to these organizations...FREE CUPCAKES!** **This is a lie. You do not get a free cupcake. But you do contribute to the education of our youth! WOO!

I have had the pleasure of helping Denise and Lori from time to time at some of their events and it is always a very positive experience. I believe it comes from a sincere love of what they do. And that is to help kids and the schools get the books they need. And no matter what event it is, there are so many teachers and parents that come to the table with their stories of how KNTR has made such a wonderful impact on the students lives. And the kids love the KNTR table.

I really wanted to love Simply Smashing Rage Release Room because I think the concept itself can be…read moreincredibly beneficial. People don't necessarily come to a rage room just to have fun and break things. Some people are dealing with tremendous grief, trauma, anger, stress, or the loss of someone they love, and an experience like this can provide a much-needed emotional release. Unfortunately, I felt the customer service and overall experience were lacking. The check-in process could definitely be more organized and welcoming, and there was very little effort made afterward to ask whether we enjoyed ourselves or had a good experience. Even though the business is centered around breaking things, basic kindness, enthusiasm, and customer service still matter. I also learned that many of the items being broken are used items that have been donated or obtained from thrift stores. What concerned me most was being told by an employee that staff members sometimes pick through donated items and select things they want for themselves before the items make it onto the floor. I obviously cannot speak to the company's policies regarding donated merchandise, but hearing that made me uncomfortable and raised questions for me about how donations are handled. There is a lot of potential here, and the actual idea behind this business is great. I simply think management could significantly improve the experience by focusing more on customer service, creating a warmer and more compassionate environment, and making sure donated items are handled transparently and appropriately. For some customers, this isn't simply about smashing a television or breaking a plate. It may be an outlet for something incredibly painful they're carrying. A little compassion and genuine human interaction could turn this from simply a place where people break things into an experience that actually helps people leave feeling a little lighter.
