We love that WINGS supports women and children. So, when we have things to donate, this is usually…read moreour first choice. I don't think I've ever been in their retail store before, but have dropped off goods many times over the years. We're purging our house of 20 years of accumulated stuff. When you arrive, they have a door for dropping off donations. We've given them clothes, nick-nacks, paintings, glassware, and more. They take everything with a smile. We'll continue to drop off merchandise as we have it. And, perhaps next time we go I'll stop into their store. The reviews are certainly good.

WINGS Resale is my favorite donation center in the area. They take all types of donations from…read moreclothes, shoes, handbags, accessories, home decor, furniture, and more. It's easy to drop off donations at their back door which is separate from the store entrance. All items are organized, priced, and resold in the store. Walking around, resale items are very fairly priced and in good condition. Their profits from the store go toward supporting families fleeing domestic violence. What a great way to give back and help those in need! Donation Hours Daily: 10am - 5pm* Tip: They have locations in Schaumburg, Arlington Heights, and Niles. Pro Tip: Check out their daily discount specials before heading over to browse their great selections.

Thought I would give this shop another try…read more Sadly, another failure the second time around. What's worse than two gossiping staff people? One 'uppity' person working who doesn't acknowledge you when you walk in, someone who seems to be 'put out' because you're actually buying something, thus giving her a task to perform (while making no small talk) and doesn't thank you for supporting the establishment. Wow. Completely tacky. Maybe if I looked differently I would have been treated differently. No, she didn't seem to be having a bad day; she was very chatty with the customer before me; who was also much older than I. Still way too overpriced for most things. Officially will not be back. Bummer.

Very disappointed... Until today, I have visited this cute shop weekly with my sister. Mostly to…read moredrop off donations for resale. Yesterday, I purchased $50 dollars worth of sweaters (most @ $4/ea) and foolishly did not try them on before buying them. Well, they did not work out. I just called the store and explained my situation and asked if I could return them for a store credit. The gentleman said no... all sales are final. My sister will probably still donate but I will be donating elsewhere. Moral of the story... make sure you really want it before you buy it.

A decent size Goodwill, located in Arlington Heights, pretty well stocked with a variety of clothes…read moreand knick knacks. Some highlights were a large selection of women's jeans, and a decent collection of frames. The pricers do seem to have acknowledged that they should be selling the donated items at market value, so prices on certain things have gone up. But 'treasures' can still be found...but alas, not this time.

Overpriced. $75.00. $39.99, $49,99 for pictures, some of the clothes are 18.99. The highest I've…read moreseen was $500 for a statue that sit for nearly two months. Furthermore, stop marking the lamps at 29.99- 39,00 only for the employees to use their discounts and purchase the item for much less, then after talking about it on the floor. (I do have the rest of the clips, but here is a peep of the video). This is a management issue at this point. I don't want to hear there's something is wrong with their pricing scanner, unless Goodwill is hiring the visually impaired to mark items. You can fix up your store, make it organize, clean it and it still won't matter if your overly priced with used items, dealing with employee bad attitudes and entering a non-friendly store. you will not get a welcome at this store by the women. Donate to salvation Army. Their clothes are much cheaper, they still have %50 off day, (goodwill does not), reasonable priced, helpful friendly, and also will help you if you're in need of assistant (bills)

This is a complex one for me. My family got involved with this organization back in 2001 because my…read morewife had SMA and we had recently had our first child. She found them while doing research on women with SMA having children and had only found 2 others documented. Since then there have been quite a few, with some crediting my wife with being the reason they tried. We went to our first conference that year and were hooked. We have contributed to them in many ways over the years. She spoke at conferences for the rest of her life. I worked for them for 4 years and she spent 4 years on their board of directors. We did volunteer work across more than 4 chapters in multiple states including 2 here in Florida where I now live. The chapters provide support for individuals and families and do various fundraisers throughout the year. The local chapters are all volunteer run and are vital to the community. The national office provides support for individuals, families and the local chapters. To try and understand everything they do you would need to visit their website. For a bit of context, (SMA) Spinal Muscular Atrophy is the leading genetic cause of death for infants. Cure SMA is dedicated to the idea of an SMA free world. They have helped with funding the first treatment and are still working towards a cure.

This is an unusual review and typically one doesn't see it at this platform. I have been a…read morecertified donor for almost 2 months and I think it is time for rendering a review. My second baby has been exclusively breastfed from birth and he is over 15-month-old. In other words, he consumes whole milk nowadays yet I'm still nursing him from time to time. I still pump regularly, at home and at work. These excess supplies have been stored in our freezer and I know the best solution is to make donations so that I can free up the space from my current inventory and to help out those who can benefit from my donation as long as I am still pumping. "Mothers Milk Bank of the Western Great Lakes" was the first organization that popped up when I conducted the Google search. I filled out the inquiry form and Liz, from the organization, contacted me a few days later and requested a Zoom interview/intake. The process was rather easy for someone like me who doesn't take prescription medication and is quite healthy. They paid for the blood draw and this was done at my nearby Quest Diagnostics location. Everything was straight forward. I have a choice to drop off my donations at the milk depot that is close to my neighborhood. However, for a larger quantity (100 ounces or more), I can ask for a driver to pick up my donations. Susan, one of the coordinators, is also communicative, either with a phone call or a text. All the drivers have been super courteous and thankful for my contributions. Mostly importantly, they have always come within the time intervals stated. I recommend checking out their website to learn about their mission, how the milk is treated, packaged, distributed, and utilized, and the impact they have made to the moms and babies in IL ans WI! What I have seen is powerful and I'm proud to be a donor!

I had to clear out a home to prep for a sale. These guys were amazing. The house was filled with…read moreold furniture and nicknacks. They even removed old carpet. The crew showed up and had the house cleared in 4 hours. The crew was very kind and incredibly efficient. I couldn't be happier with the experience, from the first call to completion. Thank you
