PLEASE MEET MATTHEW:

With open overflowing hearts, the Facing Homelessness Board and Staff want to simply say - THANK YOU!

There are endless acts of kindness that go on in this city every single day, one after another. Often they go unseen, but they make a difference. These moments hold us together.

We all know people like that, we can all name who they are in our lives. For me, Matthew Shea is one of those exceptionally kind people. I find him to be simply remarkable!

He was a big-time-chef in NYC before falling into homelessness here in Seattle. Despite his own struggles, he would cook a weekly fancy meal at Gas Works Park for those living without shelter. He gathered food at the Food Bank and asked others to donate when they could, somehow all coming together as a feast!

A heartfelt THANKS to everyone that makes a difference for sharing KINDNESS in our community.

If you are looking for a place to celebrate THANKSGIVING, come out to the 4th Annual Thanksgiving Meal at the Gift of Grace Church in Wallingford. Matthew will be the chef with Power of WE supporting him!

Time: Thursday November 28th from noon to 3pm
Location: Gift of Grace Church in Wallingford
2102 N 40th St, Seattle, WA 98103 (In the basement)

HAPPY THANKSGIVING to this big beautiful community!
