I cannot do them justice since they have many programs here to help members of our community that I haven't worked with. I have volunteered here a few times when I was a student through UW-Milwaukee. I helped bag groceries to be handed out to members of the community who needed help. They work very hard to create a balanced bag nutritionally each time such as protein, breakfast items, meat/ eggs, fruits/ veg, dessert (if they have any), soup, pasta/ rice, and a few other types of items I'm forgetting. When they have fresh fruits and vegetables they place them out for people to pick from. They also let people pick out bread items. The number of bags people receive depends on family size. They also have baby food items for those who need them. I also organized personal cleaning supplies (keep the good stuff, throw out the bad/ expired, put out the smaller stuff for people to pick out for free when they came to pick up food, etc). I thought this was really nice of them to have available, many people looked through the baskets once I started filling them. The staff is very kind to those who come in needing assistance and try to help. The area I worked in was basic but clean. They treat the community members that need help with respect (I've seen orgs where they don't treat people very well, this is not one of those orgs!). Great place to help the local community and for people to receive assistance. I've only scratched the surface as to what this nonprofit does for the community, check out their website. Time/ money/ personal donations brought here are not wasted!

Recently, my employer set up a volunteer day with HTF and I was really happy to participate! My…read morereview pertains to that side of things, not using their services. We arrived for a 3 hour shift which was to pack food boxes for seniors. There were two other companies there as well, so we had a good number of people to get the job done! Overall, they were very organized, energetic and motivating and answered any questions we had. At first I thought, how will this work with everyone knowing what to do? But you know what, the way they do it everything just moved along like a well oiled machine. People helped each other without asking and we just kept on packing those boxes. At the end, I think we did 925! They do require everyone stop for a 20 minute break halfway through and encourage you to stay hydrated. I'd highly recommend this as a volunteer opportunity with an employer group or even solo or with your family. What they offer the community is well needed and it's an rewarding experience.

I have gone to this event for nearly 20 years, both as a patron and volunteer. Originally they had only handmade bowls from hundreds of local artists, but now there are a few additional items as well as a silent auction. Vendors from around the county are on hand serving up samples of soup.

My husband and I enjoy coming to this event…read more The 1st year, we picked our own bowls but years after, we decided to do the grab bag/mysterious bowls because we didn't want to wait in line. We come every year because it's fun to try all the different soups that restaurants bring. It has a been a good way to try something that places that we've never heard of (and a good way for restaurants to promote business). There are different kinds of bread there as well for people to eat. I've used it to get the left over soup on the bottom of the bowl that I couldn't get with a spoon This year, they had commemorative spoons that they sold for $10. We enjoy coming too because it's a good cause and why not support a cause that raises awareness about hunger. It's nice because you get 2 tickets with your purchase of a bowl. You can buy extra tickets for more soup if you are still hungry and want to try more soups So here's my suggestion: go. Get a bowl. Eat soup. Support a good cause

Our very first time going- leaving very sad and heavy. The entire service (if you could call it that) was about expanding, getting more followers, pushing other friends and family to focus on putting money into the church. There was no celebration of God, no respect to thee scripture except manipulating the words of God as a way to draw money from people's pockets. I am SO sad. I feel deep sorrow and am appalled. I grew up in a cult and have done a lot of treatment and therapy and guidance from God in the church- and this feels exactly like the cult I grew up in. This is not a safe space of the Lord.

Don't ever come to this Mission ever. Staffs don't treat us friendly way, they give attitudes and make people upset and angry. Staffs don't give a crap if your belongs had been stolen, and do nothing about it. Case workers at Mission does excellent job and respecting me being deaf, communicated with me in right fair way by writing down and spoke through the phone as translator into words, they had patience with me which is impressed and respectful. Staffs aren't respectful at all. They need to replace unprofessional staffs like Will, Jeffery, and white guy, skinny one.

My little grandson has such a love affair with all things trains, and after our fifth visit there…read moreyesterday, I have to commend the volunteer model train enthusiasts at the Lionel Railroad Club of Milwaukee, located in New Berlin, for making him feel so welcome and encouraging him to really explore. We were the only visitors at the time, so we're greeted by all the people there who had interesting stories to share and told me of several other places we could go for additional "train fixes". While we've been to many, it was so kind of these gentlemen to go out of their way to encourage my grandson's love of trains. Please go and check out this club. The layouts are incredibly detailed!

The hours changed at about this time of the year so the weekends hours are open now. First off the place is hard to find because it's in a strip mall and you can't see the place from the front, drive around to the back side and you will find it. It looks small with one door but it's way bigger on the inside with a huge multi level Lionel O scale layout. The layout is impressive with great detail and interactive scenes/display, just push one of the marked buttons and something comes to life or lights up. Three trains were operating on my visit a steam passenger train, a freight train and a diesel locomotives on the wall display. One of the guys from the club gave me some info and showed me around, this spot is 17 years strong for the club. You can become a member and bring your own trains to run on the layout, no need to have a huge layout in the basement. The layout is very nice but it's a little high for the kids to see but it is a cool place to take the kids. This is a nice different place to spend some time on a rainy day like today or any day if model trains interest you. I'm a train junkie so I like anything train and to have a very cool place like this in the area is neat but don't forget to leave a donation and sign the guest book.

We were not told he was ill. After we took him to the vet he was tested for additional parasites and had to go through a lengthy medication routine. It was very stressful for him and expensive for us. They were not upfront about his health challenges or their lack of testing. Do not assume the cats are healthy when you pick them up. I love what they do for these animals, however, someone looking for a cat would be better off getting one from the humane society where they are treated for any illnesses they might have. I'm not sure he had a chance of being healthy due to the fact that he was in a Milwaukee home with 11 other cats.
