I was a…read morelittle hesitant but screw it, its about doing things for others once in a while and just enjoying it. I usually do not like to talk about the good one does, but in this case, its more-so for the fact that others can join in and help them out when the need arises. If a teenager has to do volunteer hours this is the perfect opportunity to do so. I was put in the kitchen to cut up veggies and help make the GIGANTIC VAT of spaghetti. I mean this thing fed the 188 people we served just that afternoon. Seriously, it was something of a feat to see this. I didn't think it was actually going to feed everyone in the hall, but wow if it did! I helped prep the salad, spaghetti and even the desserts. I have to admit, I was so happy I went. And although it was hard work, the workers made it fun and exciting if that can be stated. They are a non for profit organization that gets donations of food from all over, and just recently started getting food donated from Aldi, YES ALDI! 7 days a week they feed the hungry and NEVER turn anyone away. Some guy (who I heard is a regular) came in with his 2 liter of soda already ready for the nights food. And you would think that a they would serve small portions, but no, these portions were fit for a football player. I mean seriously big portions. Then at the end of the night, (Food is served from 5-6 and stops after that), a take home bag is given to everyone which could consist of produce and a whole bag is what they give. Not one pack, a WHOLE BAG. Nutritious foods that some of the participants probably would never get access too. Not to mention that I was told by one of the cooks that people from far away south come for this and they are fine with that. What a wonderful thing to see, and I hope that this review will encourage others to volunteer their time at least once, to give back something to the communities that so need it. Parking down the block is free on Paulina, but if you park in front, its metered. I choose this so be prepared.

Feeding Hungry people all year round is not a Joke but this organization has been doing it…read moreeffortlessly.Glad to get a chance to volunteer as part of "Yelp Takeover event". They feed nutritious dinner 365 days which is really commendable. Apart from feeding homeless,veterans this organization also does social projects like Micro lending,Mentoring kids and guiding them in education. The place is spacious enough for feeding 50-60 people at one go. They have a big kitchen and counter to serve food.Rest Rooms are clean . Tammy, the staff is very friendly.This place is 5 min walk from Howard CTA station incase if you want to volunteer or donate.It is always good to spare time for less privileged. You can donate your money/time.Gift Donation is tax deductible. Helping Hands are better than Praying Lips-Mother Theresa.

He calls himself a pastor! Disgusting Christmas display! The world already tried to beat, whip,…read morechain, and kill Jesus. And He rose from the grave and lives today. No costume, no mockery, no earthly power can erase the truth: Christ is alive, and His victory cannot be bound. You may dress Him in zip ties, but He broke every chain. You may try to silence Him, but His Word thunders louder than your display. The fire of truth burns brighter than your theatrics -- and it will not be quenched. God is not an immigrant. He is the Creator of heaven and earth, the One who spoke galaxies into being, the Alpha and the Omega. He is not contained by your stagecraft, nor diminished by your false witness. Beware: the Lord who shattered death itself will not be mocked. Your display is straw before the consuming fire of His glory.

She is very rude and condescending most of the time, She has preferences on people when to talk appropriate but others people she talks to them in rude way and unkind manner. She needs to improve on her people skills and social skills and treat everyone with respect and equally. In my opinion she does not fit in her position if she is going to continue in that way or choose another job where she doesnt have to deal with people. Also this place have limits to distribute the food most to certain people. Who gets what? Most of the time the food is expired. Need more training to the management personnel and also training on Staff's.

They offer more than just repairs, sales, and tune-ups: they offer classes to the community to empower residents with the skills they need to maintain, repair, and even upgrade their own bikes. Everyone who works or volunteers there comes across not just as very helpful but also very open and supportive - they're willing to answer any question and solve just about any problem. You can buy bikes online now or shop in-person on Sundays from 10am to 2pm. Many of the classes and special event evenings are on hiatus due to covid, but keep an eye on the website for updates.

There was no "conversion talk" like other places. You can get a vegetarian lunch for free or almost nothing on Sundays. They do not ask you to spread the word of Krishna if you eat there. All they ask is you help your fellow humans. I love places that do not try to convert you. I will definitely go back again. I think one of the devotees hit on me the last time I went there.....nothing like a little flirting with the Hare Krishna devotees....may be he can teach me how to do their dance... But seriously, this place brings calm and peace to my soul. I feel at peace as soon as I step in.....there were days when I just sat on the floor and read a book while watching the devotees sing and dance in prayer.
