My Nonprofit Reviews

I eat, visit, or volunteer at Drexell and Honeybees about once a week. The vision of Lisa and Freddie McMillan is to stop food insecurity. They have created a loving environment where the community, young and old, rich and poor, can come together and enjoy a meal. The food is made from fresh fruits and vegetables and is absolutely amazing. The items are donated and different every day. The signature cornbread is one of my favorites,. This is a donation only restaurant, you pay what you can. I know my donation will help pay it forward for someone else’s meal. I have made so many new friends that I may never have met but have seen around town. I am forever grateful for this change I have witnessed in our community. The elderly and lonely come and eat with college students and families, business people in suits as well as those in uniforms. We share a meal and a donation or thank you note, Drexell and Honeybees is feeding our souls.

Carlisa, Inc. is a non profit organization with many missions. In fact, "We feed the Need" is their mission statement. They are involved in many different projects in our community. Their ability to act quickly was put to the test recently when the towns of Flomaton, AL and Century , FL were hit by a devastating tornado. I knew Carlisa, Inc. had the experience to help and was so glad they could provide hot meals to the victims of this horrible storm. This nonprofit is a very productive part of our community and has been for several years.
