This was my first time volunteering at the new location. Great organization for a great cause…read more As always, I arrived 15 minutes early and followed all of the instructions. Appreciate the lockers for my personal belongings at the presentation area. The rest of the steps and assembly lines were just the way I remembered it. I volunteered at a new station this time, which I very much enjoyed. Totally got a bicep workout out of it. Thank you, FMSC, for a meaningful experience and wonderful memories all these years!

First time to volunteer with this organization and it was an amazing experience! The ease of…read moresigning up for shifts was great, everything is done on-line. We arrived about 15 minutes prior to our 9am shift and there were several groups there as well. We were brought into the large room where the market is located (more in a moment on this) and found lockers to lock our things up (you can't wear hoop earrings, rings, necklaces, etc.). They give you small plastic baggies to put your stuff in; you are also required to wear a hair net and men with facial hair was also required to wear a beard net. We watched a couple of videos that explained what we would be packing and where it was shipped to as well as specifics for the actual packing station. It is so rewarding to know that these Mano Packs are shipped to countries where children suffer greatly from malnutrition. At the end they actually give you a sample of what we packed. It was like a savory oatmeal and included rice, protein, a mixture of dehydrated veggies and a scoop of powdered vitamins and nutrients. It was good actually. We were at a packing station with some others including children and once everyone decided on which job we wanted to do, after a few minutes and bags, we found our packing rhythm. They have a very precise method to the packing of these meal bags and with music, cheering, etc...the two hours flew by! If you are looking for a meaningful volunteer opportunity, check them out. We are going back for a second time and I think we'll make this one of our regular volunteer opportunities. Staff working is great and helpful and so passionate about the work they are doing! The marketplace includes crafts made by the people of the different villages around the world. We learned that not only are the families given food packets but they are also signed up for resources and employment opportunities and everything else in an effort to make their lives better. The marketplace is amazing!

I'm not sure who is making the decisions for this nonprofit, but the recent changes have been…read morereally disappointing. This used to be a store where people with limited means could walk in and find something decent and affordable to wear. I don't understand how items that are donated for free are now being priced at $12. That feels like an excessive markup for a thrift store. Thrift stores are meant to serve community members who are struggling and help meet basic needs. Adding the word "vintage" to the name doesn't seem like it should justify doubling prices. It feels concerning that an organization that claims to support children may now be putting additional strain on families who are already having a hard time, especially when the merchandise is donated. The shift reminds me of the pricing philosophy at Goodwill Industries International, which is one reason I stopped shopping there. I used to be a weekly customer. Now I only stop in occasionally if I happen to be nearby. Overall, this has been very disappointing.

What happened here? It used to be so nice and well organized and now looks like a Goodwill…read moreClearance Center. The prices have increased and there's so.much chaos in the unorganized store. Please return back to normal. The boutique looked well put together that's where the 2 stars come in. The outside boutique area was overpriced for some damaged and rained on items.

The atmosphere is very welcoming and kindness is just spread all around. When I was first introduced to Free Arts, the staff member service was eager to help me through the volunteer requirements. I appreciate their helpful service. This place holds a lot of value and I hope Phoenix gets to know how wonderful this nonprofit organization really does make an impact on kids and adolescence.

Also involved with Generation United, we spent time with underprivileged children during the free arts day at the museum. There were three highly organized activities with the groups split up into about 8-10 kids. The activities were kids yoga, and two where the children created their own art. The organizers did a great job explaining what the volunteer's boundaries should be and how we could maximize our time with the children. My group were 4-year olds and we were each assigned one child. Being that I have an almost 4 year old, it felt natural to play with my buddy but it was so difficult when we had to say good bye. These kids need so much and you just want to do more. Luckily, they have organizations like Free Arts to bring some fun and creativity into their lives.

My wife and I started having issues with our landlord which is a company called Invitation Homes…read moreback in 2025 and they were slow to fix things. They told us we could break our lease and told us all we had to do was give them 30 day notice and we'd be able to break our lease, get our deposit back, and not be fined to break the lease. No other stipulations other than that. Within 10 days we signed to have our new home built and the landlord revoked their offer to allow us to leave. We started working with Ken in Jan 2026 as we knew we had to move but didn't want to face paying our landlord 2 months rent to break the lease. We paid the fee to work with Ken and we got to work. Ken was able to send out his home inspector Sandy to take a look at the home and from there we sent letters to the landlord. In our case the landlord had been sent two letters already which was weeks apart before they had their lawyers respond saying that we'd be held liable for leaving. While this made us anxious Ken put us at ease because the landlord. 1) Hadn't fixed the issues we told them about in our letters 2) Had their registration filed wrong with the state. (Which Ken said was grounds to break your lease on it's own) This made us feel a bit better but we were hoping the landlord didn't press the issue as Ken explains to you before you sign and pay with him that they can't help you with civil matters if a landlord tries to take you to court. They only help draft the letters to your landlord and have their 3rd party attorneys review the letters being sent out. Ken tells you how to take photos to document anything that is wrong with the home that you'll need for future reference. In our case we did our move out inspection with the landlord and their inspector was blue taping areas he noticed had issues to be fixed. All things that Sandy had found and Ken had drafted in the letters. Which is funny because our landlord's lawyers were stating that everything with the home was fixed and we were just trying to break our lease and not pay. So on move out inspection day we had already had the keys processed served to our landlord and we left it at that. Ken walks you through how to approach the move out. We were polite but didn't give more information to the landlord than what was needed and I offered and did clean areas they wanted me to before I left. Ken then started helping us draft the demand letters for our security deposit. Which thankfully the landlord gave back in full. We were expecting them to fine us for something and deduct money. I don't know if it was Ken's letters, the landlord being afraid they'd get in more trouble if we reported their address wasn't up to date with the state, or what but we didn't expect a full refund. Ken and his team has assured that's the end of things and we're hoping that's the case. With us giving them the keys nearly 3 weeks ago as of writing this the landlord hasn't demanded any money which was surprising, given that they threatened to do so. Ken had assured us he had dealt with Invitation Homes before several times so that made us feel better but you just never know how a corp will react. Ken and his team are amazing. They came recommend by the Arizona Department of Housing when I was calling around looking for help on how to deal with our landlord. I can't imagine what things would have been like if we just paid the landlord 2 months rent to break the lease. We're hoping to not get anything else from the landlord but for now we're happy and grateful we found Ken and the team.

I contacted the business to ask if they could help with my case and I was assured they'd be able to…read moreassist me once I paid the membership dues and had a current lease. Once I paid the dues AND RENEWED MY LEASE, the SAME agent that made the assurances told me there was nothing he could do for me!
