    If I could give this place only one star, I would…read more I used this place a few years ago but never wrote a review, my bad. My mum took my computer to this repair shop because the screen was going fuzzy for no apparent reason. (it was an HP and it was probably because of overheating) It took days to get my computer back and when I did the screen hadn't been fixed!! My mum took it in again and they had it for a few more days. When we finally got it back, guess what, the screen still wasn't fixed. We refused to deal with that shop any further, it was so frustrating. What took the laptop apart ourselves and cleaned it out. Now, as long as we keep it cool and give it a deep cleaning every now and then, the screen isn't so bad. I upgraded to a new laptop a little while after anyway but my family still used that funky thing. And then.....! Windows disappeared from the computer, it's hard to explain, but basically the computer says that it's running on some weird sort of trial version of windows. No more Office, no more... Well, basically the programs don't work on it anymore. We just use it to go online sometimes. So I don't know what the hell that guy did to my computer, but he sure fucked it up! DON'T EVER GO HERE!

And a nonprofit I volunteer for needed some advice about a computer issue and he checked out the computer without charging us a service fee. My husband paid for a warranty for a laptop at a big box store and the store not only didn't repair the computer but didn't honor the warranty. So we will continue bringing our computers here, we're lucky to have him in Peterborough.

    This is not an honest or reliable rescue group. I know there are many reputable rescue groups out…read morethere, so please do your research beforehand. My dog had many problems, which could have been avoided. We have spent thousands of dollars in the few weeks that we got our puppy and a lot of this could have been avoided if not for this rescue group's negligence. 1. Our dog came covered in fleas. He had scabs all over his body from the bites. He was not given a flea preventative treatment even though we were told that would be taken care of before he was transported to us according to the contract. Subsequently, due to flea allergies he then developed a skin infection AND ear infection a few weeks later. Our house had to be exterminated. He also developed tape worm, which dogs get from eating fleas. This ALL could have been avoided if he had been given the proper preventative flea treatment. This would have saved us a lot of money and the puppy a lot of suffering. 2. The puppy also had giardia, another intestinal parasite when we received him. According to the contract and New Hampshire law he was also supposed to test negative for this, but was not tested because "he did not show any symptoms." 3. Communication was extremely unprofessional. They would not take any responsibility for any of the issues that we had since day one with our puppy. They told me that I should "get a job" and to stop "harassing them." 4. Communication involving the transport was awful. It was extremely difficult to get any definitive answer as to when our puppy would arrive. He was supposed to arrive on a Saturday morning at 9 am. We could a phone call the Friday night before at 9 o'clock informing us they were "running 24 hours late" with no reason at all. He came instead Sunday morning with short notice. 5. I have spoken with another family who adopted our puppy's brother. This family's puppy also came with fleas and giardia. 6. I know it is difficult to know the breed of a dog when rescuing because most of the time you do not know the parents, but this group blatantly lied about our dog's breed. They told us lab/rottie mix and that the dog was going to be VERY large. I was sent 2 more pics after I had already paid and knew something was wrong because his legs were extremely short with a very long body. I inquired about this and they lied and told me it was the "angle of the camera." I said I wanted more pictures but never received any. Now that we have had our puppy for about two months, it is clear this dog is a basset hound and that he will not be a large dog. I added this complaint last because we still love our puppy unconditionally, even though he was not what he expected. I just wanted to add the last reason this group is dishonest. As you can see, there have been a multitude of problems since receiving our puppy and these problems should have been taken care of. This rescue group did not hold up their end of the deal. Unfortunately, we and our poor puppy have had to pay for it.

    First off I do have to say I love my dog. Now that I've said that I'm pretty disappointed in Happy…read moreDogs of New England. I know it can be very hard to tell the breed of a rescue dog but what they told me and what she is are two completely different things. I don't care about her breed, although they told me she was a lab mix and turns out she is a beagle/pitbull mix. That part that bothers me is that they said my dog was going to be around 60-70lbs. I prepared for this, I bought a large crate, large bed, large toys, large food bowl, large breed puppy food. My dog is now 8 months old and weighs MAYBE 20 lbs. A vet would be able to estimate weight at 4 months so basically the vet was an idiot or they lied. The only thing I didn't end up exchanging was her food bowl.... The next thing they did was lie about her personality. Now I know puppies are all mostly energetic but as a rescue group they should be able to tell basic personality traits. I wanted a calm, laid-back dog. I got the complete opposite. She is very high energy, needs tons of attention, and is the most stubborn dog I've ever met and I still love her. Just not what I was told. The thing I am most upset about is fleas. It took me a little over a week to realize she had fleas and by that point she had already infected my two cats (who sleep in my bed) and the entire house. I had to bomb my house multiple times. Isn't basic dog care to apply flea & tick preventative. Especially when that dog is about to go on a transport bus with 50 other dogs? Like I said, I love my dog but I didn't like that I felt like I was lied to about who my dog really was.

Heroes (campers) spend their days adventuring and exploring the grounds, making choices that will impact the story moving forward.

They also offer scholarships, sibling discounts, and multi-session discounts to make camp accessible. They are also hugely focused on inclusion within the LGBTQ+ and neurodivergent communities. I wish we could host camp all year!

    I love the Nonprofit Center!…read more It's T accessible - right near south station. In addition to being the office of over 40 nonprofits, it also has meeting space available for other nonprofits to use (you do not have to be a tenant). I've been to meeting here sponsored by Tech Networks of Boston, Women in Development (fundraising), The Communications Network, Public Relations Society of America, and Third Sector New England. The event space is great, but my one warning is to triple check the microphones with the nonprofit center events staff if you have speakers. About half the times I've been to events there, audio problems occurred, so I always sit in the front to be sure I can hear. I'm jealous of the employees of the nonprofits in this building! What a lovely place to work!

    I work for a nonprofit that needed a venue for an event of 50-75 people, which was fast approaching…read morein about 6 weeks when I started my quest. I researched every venue I could find, over 55 in total. We couldn't afford to spend thousands of dollars, and time was running out - as were my options. Then I came across The NonProfit Center - after my initial inquiry I was contacted by Faisal and literally everything was smooth sailing from there! I took a look at the space and it was perfect, they were available the date I needed, and the price was right. Faisal answered all of my (many) questions and kept in touch to make sure there was nothing else I needed. Next time I will save myself the run-around and go here first - can't say enough good things, we had a wonderful experience!

I've met the most inspiring group of women through this organization, and I've developed professionally, personally and spiritually because of the League. I was previously a member of the Junior League of Greenwich, CT and upon relocation to Boston I transferred membership to the JLB; the Boston-based League has a fantastic transfer committee who welcomes new members with open arms. All of the women I've met so far have been kind, open-minded and genuinely passionate about the mission of the Junior League to meaningfully contribute to the Boston community. I would recommend the Junior League to anyone new to Boston who wants to engage in the community and give back through involvement with an organized, effective and well-functioning nonprofit organization.
