What we take
Supplies to support our community
Serving the most vulnerable people in our community is the top priority for Mary’s Place and the Pike Market Food Bank & Senior Center. These hygiene, sanitation and critical household goods will be deployed across their shelters to get them to individuals and families with the greatest needs, including homeless families and seniors, and to protect employees.
The Seattle Humane Society’s Pet Food Bank feeds over 2,000 pets every month. The food bank prevents the need to surrender pets due to economic stability, and they never want anyone to need to make that heartbreaking decision. The Seattle Humane Society anticipates these needs to continue growing as people in our community are laid off due to COVID-19 work closures.

Mary's Place
Mary’s Place is a leading voice for homeless women, children, and families in emergency situations. They empower families to reclaim their lives by offering community, acceptance, hope and dignity.
Since starting out in 1999 as a day center for homeless women, Mary’s Place has expanded their efforts as the scope of our region’s homelessness has broadened. Today, using their system of converting unused buildings into temporary emergency family shelter, Mary’s Place has a day center for homeless women, and eight night shelters available for moms and dads with children that provide a warm bed, two meals, and a community of support for a total of 680 family members each night.
We began partnering with Mary’s Place through Owen’s List after volunteering there and seeing up close the positive impact their work was having. Past category-specific drives have delivered needed items like umbrellas and maternity clothing and we look forward to helping their organization again in the future.
