Our back to school event is next week - and we still need USB drives, pencil cases, binders, new tennis shoes of all sizes and other school supplies. Please drop your donations by our office (4555 Delridge Way SW) today until 3pm or on Monday between 9am and 3pm. We appreciate your support as we help prepare our youth for a successful year at school!
As an organization that stands for the social justice and equity for all people, we are deeply saddened by the recent events in Charlottesville. We believe that these unjust acts of hate, racism, anti-Semitism, sexism and the institutions that perpetuate them are the greatest barrier to social justice and equity that we all strive to achieve.
Join with us and stand up against these kinds of hateful actions as we continue our commitment to anti-racism, anti-sexism, full support for religious belief, working for the collective good, and for full inclusion of all in governance and equitable self-determination.
Want to go to a Sounders game this weekend and support SWYFS at the same time?
