Clothes Closet — Local services in Orange Park

I have been having a really bad experience with these people. I was referred to them by healthy start for my county and when I called to clarify information before I drove 45 miles the lady I spoke with seemed to discourage me and not care after asking what I needed.

Living room furniture TV stand dining room table nightstands a desk and A Chair for my daughter just everything it's a wonderful place that's the best place to...

I got there before closing and the lady doing food distribution gave one person food before telling the rest of us in line to leave. She vehemently insisted that they were closed, even though the hours obviously said they weren’t. It is my understanding that most of what they gave to the person who got their food was bread, which I would assume most places would like to give that out before it goes bad, and every day and every person counts. There were people with children who were waiting, but they were told to go back another day. Even though it wasn’t closed according to their official hours, she waved everyone out. She was also unnecessarily rude, raising her voice, saying “it’s five minutes to close, get out”. I really hope my experience is not the...
