Review for Another Option, Inc., Mesa, AZ, USA
I've volunteered at this organization in the past. I was laid off over a month ago and all my bills were behind,some of my utilities were off and my rent was coming due. I was assisted by this organization with some of my utilities and what they weren't able to assist with they referred me to other organizations to assist me. I was just offered a temporary job that was to start asap that was pretty far away. They assisted in providing me gas and assistance with parking. Being that I have two kids this was a God send. I'm glad they were able to help me and know that others who are helped by them will benefit also. From a volunteer stand point I see how the community is coming together to assist with this program. I see how people flock to the store and how kids, parents and the elderly light up every time they enter the store. People rave about the pleasant family atmosphere and how welcomed they feel when coming to the store. I know that God will bless this program with additional resources and funding so that so many more people can be helped.
