CURRENT NEEDS:
1)
Nonperishable food items: Our Partners in Caring (PIC) program is having a food drive from now through the end of the year and we need your help! More than 70 seniors and other homebound individuals count on PIC for a weekly delivery of groceries. There is a high demand for this service, at the same time that budgets are being cut. Because of these realities, we are now counting on the community to help us meet the need. Our goal is to collect enough goods to ensure that there are no gaps in the service.
A sampling of the types of foods we need: canned protein (tuna, beans, etc.), cereal, rice, canned fruits and vegetables, boxed meals and mixes, soups, oatmeal, and shelf-stable snacks (granola bars, cookies, etc.). Please deliver or send your donations to the front desk at Solid Ground’s Headquarters building at 1501 N. 45th Street, Seattle, WA 98103. Questions? Contact Ugochi at PIC@solid-ground.org or Trish at hungeractioncenter@solid-ground.org.

ONGOING IN-KIND GIFT NEEDS:
-
Donations for kids: Our Food Security for Children program always needs food, clothing and toys for infants and young children. Please see our detailed list of frequently-needed kids' items — or contact the program at 206.694.6755 or fsc@solid-ground.org.
-
Gardening tools & supplies: Solid’s Ground’s Lettuce Link program — and Lettuce Link’s Community Fruit Tree Harvest and Marra Farm Giving Garden projects — are grateful for donations of gently used (unless otherwise noted) or new items. See our Gardening Wish List, or contact the program directly at 206.694.6754 or lettucelink@solid-ground.org.
-
Raffle prizes: Our Partners in Caring program sponsors several raffles a year at Seattle Housing Authority buildings. The events have become VERY popular, so the prize pool is low. Residents enjoy winning practical household items or gift certificates. If you have something that may be appropriate to donate for a prize, contact the program at 206.694.6731 or PIC@solid-ground.org. We might even be able to arrange to pick it up!
