Heart of West Michigan United Way: what do users think?
B J: The website used to be easy to navigate but now it is confusing to get the answers you want.
Sirjaymes: The organization has allowed some of the most vulnerable in the community to fall through the cracks. Although never benefited from their service (even when in need) I have always supported the Heart of West Michigan United Way. I can no longer support this organization after I discovered that organization has imposed a prohibition on providing assistance From the tax payer funded CERA program to needy individuals and families who live in motels. The purpose of the CERA program was to provide help to those who have been negatively affected by the pandemic. This prohibition is not only grossly unfair it penalizes those who are most impacted by the pandemic solely on the basis of their living situation. The denial fails to account that many individuals including myself have been forced to live in motels as a direct result of COVID pandemic. When allocating these funds neither state or federal guidelines established the prohibition. Therefore it is and wrong for United Way to arbitrarily imposed guidelines for the benefits which and others would otherwise qualify for.
Vanessa M Mielke: Could be more helpful.
Taniqua Williams: Beautiful
Dan Maloney: They prepare my taxes every year. Awesome staff.
Elizabeth Szucs: So nice people !
Floyd Young: Free tax service
Timothy Conley: Wonderful organization!! Great staff!! Extremely helpful. Very considerate.
AnewMei Akuah: If you are STRANDED & need help due to emergency this organization is NOT the place. They refuse to help or offer other possible resources and kept stating there’s nothing they can do. But still tried to gather irrelevant info from you.
kevin hagler: This organization give so much to our community, my hats off to them, their mission and community concern is a welcome change to some of the polarized views these days. If you have the time or money consider them a worthwhile organization!
Eddie Tadlock: Contributing dollars to the community for 100 years. A great organization serving the needs of West Michigan.

Said we didnt have to book a hotel because they had a discount at one and would set it up the day before. After days of talking to Renee and the hotel we were told it would be taken care of. The Ronald McDonald house was terrible about contacting us back. As we are getting ready to leave today they call us and say theres no room so they will get the room at the hotel. After not hearing anything for two hours after leaving they called and said that there was no room for us at either. The lapse in follow through and concern has now cause us to not have anywhere to stay the night before my sons procedure.

Mel Trotter Ministries: what do users think?
Denise C. Schmidt: First time to the store! Beautifully clean store, well organized and of course, inexpensive. Very friendly and helpful staff. I’ll be back!
Beastboy Gamerr4200: Do they allow couples to sleep together cause I have a newborn babe and me and my gf ant married yet
FamilyGh: A five shelter that didn't cut it like the rest of them. They need the news channel in there.
Mail Private: Shared a bunkbed with another person. We had a bathroom to ourselves. Not a Hotel but sure beats any other shelter.
Wilgen Ramirez: Muchas gracias por todo lo que están haciendo por mí me están ayudando los momentos más difíciles de mi vida donde no tenía ni dónde ir a comer ni dónde ir a vivir y ustedes mandaron un apoyo Así que muchísimas gracias por toda la ayuda
Michael Smith: May the Grace and Peace of our Saviour Jesus Christ be with everyone.
SJ WJ: We used to love Mel Trotter. Always something there for us. However, I was looking at a desk that had the sliding pricing, and after xxx date, the desk would be $15.99 (a good price as the desk was in pretty bad condition and needed serious sanding and refinishing). We went in a couple of weeks after that date just to shop around, and imagine my surprise when that exact same desk was in the display window priced at $75.99! This was about the time that all of their prices were marked up to obscene prices. We will not shop there, nor will we donate there any more. Huge rip-off for donated, thrift shop items.I know it's "for a good cause" but if no one will shop there because of the prices, are you money ahead or money BEHIND?
Allison Eischer: Great organization that deeply cares for the community!
Murtiag (Murt): We had some furniture picked up from our house, and they ripped the power line off of the side of our house, and then damaged the furniture and the house (ripping a door hinge out of the wall and destroying the frame), and didn't make much of an effort with the repairs.Their stores are the most expensive thrift stores in the area.They're not compassionate toward the homeless.Need more be said of a ministry?
Devin Dely: Proud to be a part of the aweseome staff and mission here. This place has grown so much in just the two and a half years I've been here, and it's so reassuring to see that each new change is considered with the guests' best interest and dignity at heart. That makes me proud to work here, which isn't something I can say about every organization I've worked for. The relationships I've been able to build with the people we serve has been a blessing.
Johnny Brammer: When I needed a blanket they could not do it the staff said. I needed shelter and the works program. I couldn't get help. They say a lot but did little. All I got is a mell trotter I'd card.
Aalarion Libbett: This place is made for white people if your not white the staff are extremely racist
Sean Richardson: Do not trust these ppl, thay will lie to u. I had a meeting with the heads of all the dept. And still have tex to prove it. I was told to leave my hotel room to come there. When I got there thay told me I could be there. Then my case worker sent me some were else and went on vacation and never reached out to me the whole time I was there. I went there looking for help for me and my son. Thay told me I should just worry about my self. Again have tex to prove it. Not only that every night there was a stranger sleeping in my bed. Thay told me to get over it. Thay only want government money the whole time I had a job and thay still didn't help only gas lighted me.will be going to New and Social media to prove every thing I'm saying.
Jessica Gutierrez: Does this mission allow married couples to be together? Me and my Husband are homeless and don't want to separate because separation isn't an option for us...
Lucci Brasko: I stayed there years ago in 2018 they made us pay for meals with EBT or cash do they still do that?
Ginny Gessler: 7.99 for a hot wheel? Really? Clothing is overpriced and so is everything else.
Lita Sandy: I don't know what these people are thinking. Unless you are looking for the typical clothing - as MOST of these thrifts get by on, FORGET IT. Overpriced on hard goods or collectibles.
Kevin Stephens: I had to stay two nights at Mel Trotter leaving Muskegon, I had two wait on train or bus fare too get back too Illinois, it was below zero, and Mel Trotter really helped me ,I appreciate the Beautiful State of Michigan helping me in a time of need January 13th I'll never forget,and my promise to Michigan is I'll be back to help
RICHARD Glover: It's better now that there remolding however the overflow staff bathroom is horrible and needs to be removed from the shower area. Black mold, plus security needs to fix the taking other people beds,they also need more sheets, blankets and towels and pillow cases
Robert Fowler: Was there for 5 days. Tested positive for covid. I have no symptoms but they send me to the old hope house and put me in a room with a nasty dude who has multiple symptoms. I could die but trotters keeps filling their coffers. Being 57 with underlying health issues I take this seriously. I am a Diabetic
Mike Hite: Ran into one of the Mel Trotter Case managers at Meijer's (Demarco L.), what a humble, well informed individual with a heart for the ministry! Always willing to serve, even when off the clock. Thanks Demarco for your service!
