Tuscaloosa Nonprofits and Charities

Very focused and well equipped for their mission and vision. Onboarding and training with them is easy and smooth, super friendly staff, always available to answer questions, and have a knowledge and excellent expertise for the areas of service that they provide.

Phi Eta Sigma played a huge role on my college experience by giving me leadership and service opportunities throughout my time. These experiences helped me win one of the Phi Eta Sigma scholarships that paid for a lot of my master's degree. I love Phi Eta Sigma and encourage students to join!

The Club does a wonderful job nurturing and encouraging the youth

HOWA has helped care for several of my close friends and families. Hospice orchestrated comfort and care to their loved ones that allowed the families to feel comfortable and peaceful during such a difficult time.

I have 2 children, and was a client from 9/9/13 until 11/7/13. We were under stress and frightened because of our experiences. Since there were no staff available to help with the children, they had to hear me recount all of the domestic violence details with the staff that we had endured. We were informed that we could not shut our bedroom door, and shared a bedroom with 1 other client. They allowed mentally unstable, drug users, prostitutes, and homeless live there. The social worker directed us to a bulletin board for help with information regarding housing and employment. She was not very helpful, unless you asked specifically for information, and then sometimes she still did not help very much. Most of the staff stayed on us about small things such as 1 piece of paper in the trash can, etc... They would wake you up to ask you regarding information that could wait until the morning when everyone was fully awake. <br> <br>I worked myself trying to find employment and housing. I knew housing would only be possible if I had a job first. I was new to the area, and needed a chance and some time. I was given a 11/22/13 exit date on 11/4/13 and the only reason was "because this will give you enough time to find housing". <br> <br>It was really apparent that most of the staff did not care about any of the clients. <br> <br>The Director, Belinda talked to me the week that I secured another place in a domestic violence shelter and said that "we do allow you to close your doors". She was trying to make herself appear in a better light. All it did was make me realize that I was glad to be out of the dangerous living environment, and free. It was almost like they treated clients like second class citizens.
