The Welcome House helps individuals and families in the Northern Kentucky area that are homeless or…read moreat risk of becoming homeless. They provide shelter, food and personal items for people in need on a daily basis. Last Christmas when my family wanted to help out with gifts for someone less fortunate, I contacted this agency and was given a list of a family's requests, which I then shopped for and delivered to Welcome House. Sometimes when I pass by this agency it seems there is often a line out front of individuals waiting for it to open. That makes me think they're doing good things to help out the less fortunate.

I cannot say enough good things about St. Joseph Home. It's a very special place. The staff is…read moreattentive, kind, professional and genuinely care about the residents. The facilities are clean and well kept. They do an amazing job caring for my sister who has been there since 2002, in addition to Day Program. When our mother died suddenly, St. Joseph Home went above and beyond to provide support for both of us. They held my hand as I applied for guardianship, assisted with the transition and have been in constant communication regarding my sisters care. As her legal guardian, I have peace of mind knowing that my sister has the very best care around the clock from people I know and trust. They are very open to feedback and consistently reach out about day to day activities, health changes, ideas, and more. I'm grateful for the level of care & home they have made for Rachel. I'm truly thankful for the work these special people do daily.

I volunteer with Food For All, which consists of pop-up food pantries across Southwestern Ohio. April Hoak heads up this program, and she fosters an amazing spirit of community among the volunteers. CCOSW celebrates its volunteers each year with a special appreciation dinner. Do check them out if you have time to give! Your efforts will make an immense difference in the lives of others.

I will never consider this charity again and I would recommend you do the same and find other charities that appreciate quality donations.
