I have been a volunteer with this organization for two years. I have volunteered often in the Thrift Shop and for many of their philanthropy activities, i.e. Operation School Bell, Operation New Beginnings. This organization is staffed entirely by volunteers who are professional, friendly and very compassionate. It is evident by the many hours donated by the members that they care about helping the community. This Assistance League is a well run organization in all aspects. The leaders of the organization are committed to following the National ByLaws and being in compliance with all aspects of the bylaws. The members not only work hard by volunteering many hours of their time to give back to the community but they also place having fun and making new friends a high priority.

I have been a volunteer for four years and am always amazed that this all volunteer organization accomplishes so much for our community. It all begins with the donations we get from people in the community. The donations are sorted, tagged, and displayed in the Assistance League Thrift Shop at 8071 Slater, Huntington Beach. All funds raised at the thrift shop go to support philanthropic programs to improve the quality of life for children and adults in our community. We give scholarships to high school graduates, nursing students, and veterans. Several times a year we cloth school children through Target. Dentists volunteer their time to screen children and we do dental awareness assemblies. These are only a few of the many programs we have. I like to say that we have the time to help and with our combined hours volunteering at the shop we are making a difference in the lives of so many people. And, it all begins with the donations we get from people in the community. xx, j.m.

I visited the ALHB Thrift Shop, and was impressed with the quality of the products for sale. The volunteers were so warm and helpful. This is a great way to shop for a good deal and support the local community.

This organization is run by a very compassionate, highly organized, group of members who donate so much of their time working in the Thrift Shop and participating in some of several Philanthropic groups.
The Thrift Shop is a beautiful example of what is done with the many donations brought in. It is beautiful, colorful, with a very cheerful, welcoming atmosphere. Many clients are referred by homeless organizations, shelters and churches for help in obtaining free clothing and household goods.
It is located in a lower income neighborhood, where families can easily access some great buys with pride.
The members are hard-working and cheerful. I am proud to be a board member of this Charitable group!
