Outreach is on pause through August, but our hearts are heavy. Some formerly unhoused neighbors are now losing housing. We didn't fail them — the system did. Full update + fundraiser info on the blog: #Seattle #HousingJustice #MutualAid #Outreach

Outreach didn’t happen this week — life and exams got in the way. But with the recent Mt. Rainier earthquake swarm, I’ve been thinking a lot about preparedness, and how we care for each other when the ground shifts.

This is caused by a housing crisis that began in the 1980's with budgetary spending cuts. There is not enough inventory to house those who live at the lowest income levels. New housing inventory concentrates on luxury over affordability. We do not get to choose who our neighbors are.

Washington had the nation's 3rd-highest homeless population in 2024 Only two states reported higher numbers of people experiencing homelessness last year.

Washington state ranks #3 in the country for our homeless population, with over 31,000 neighbors living unsheltered. In King County, there are more than 16,000 neighbors living unsheltered on a given night.

Last Saturday's outreach had fewer propane tanks than I expected, with 46.7 gallons purchased, but all the pizza was eaten! If you'd like to become a donor member of our team and support us in supporting our unsheltered neighbors, follow the link: www.zeffy.com/fundraising/...

As the weather begins to change and warm in the beautiful Pacific Northwest, volunteers have begun to think about what supplies can be distributed as the propane program winds down for the summer. If you have any good leads for donations of shoes, we would love to hear about them!
