I joined the Board of Sable Sands of NY because I believe in its mission. The organizational compassion and concern for the community is hard to find in today's world. The smallest gestures and acts of goodwill make the biggest difference in people's lives and offer the reward of knowing that you are helping others by improving and uplifting their quality of life. I will continue to work to help Sable Sands of NY grow and make sustainable, impactful change in the community. Sable Sands of NY is making the BIG difference!
I was living check to check and then my checks stopped. bills were due and more were on the way, including rent, and my gas tank was empty, keeping me from driving to reach temporary work. My time was running out I needed an answer so I searched the web with keywords like gigs and can't pay rent, etc. Via social media I was able to make arrangements with Sable to receive a gas card that gave me two full tanks. It allowed me to drive to a new job, continue to pay my bills, and gave me a helping hand that prevented possibly years of increasing hardship/ I haven't slipped deeper into poverty, simply because Sable sands helped keep me from sinking. I'd likely be jobless facing eviction/ dealing with homelessness right now if not for them. I am super grateful! I decided to volunteer time for sable sands to help others receive the same kind of help.
MY EXPERIENCE WITH SABLE SANDS SANCTUARY HAS BEEN NOTHING SHORT OF EXCELLENT! MY FAMILY AND I HAVE ALL BEEN HELPED IN MULTIPLE WAYS FROM CLEANING SUPPLIES TO BUSINESS ADVICE AND INFO. ANYONE NOT PLUGGED IN WITH SSS IS MISSING OUT !
I like the free bags of household supplies and female products. No body else gives away things like that and we need it just as bad as food. Times now in days are hard!
This is an efficient and effective NFP...It was wonderful to experience its reach all the way in Ghana West Africa...The shipping of the bountiful bags which is one component of what Sand Sables offer was nothing short of amazing. I have donated to this organization in the past, I’ll donate in the future...They truly live up to their mission and vision and the community benefits...
I live in Rochester NY and got help with my rent and a box with cleaning supplies in it. There was toilet paper and gloves, a mcdonalds food gift card, hand sanitizer, toothpaste, spray and garbage bags too. Just Lots of great stuff that I didn't mention man, check them out!! Thank you Whitney and Sable Sands of Ny!
Some stores ran out of tampons a few months ago and I was able to get some from Sables of NY the owner gave me 2 months enough of tampons and even pads just in case I could not get any and it came right in time.
Sable Sands has helped me and my family when we have had no where to go! Gave us grocery store gift cards, clothes and even toys for my little ones! This nonprofit deserves more recognition and more support!
