This month is Volunteer Appreciation Month, and we want to commemorate our wonderful volunteers! Our volunteers are truly what makes everything possible. They not only develop strong connections with our unhoused community through their compassion, but they help us ensure our programs always run smoothly. To showcase a small token of our appreciation for our volunteers’ phenomenal work, yesterday evening we hosted a celebration at Optimism Brewing Company in Capitol Hill, where volunteers from the BLOCK Project, the Window of Kindness, and the Companionship Program, gathered with our staff over food and drinks. It was a joyous experience for our staff to connect with our volunteers outside of our traditional hectic working hours. We are truly so grateful for all our volunteers who continuously show up for us and our unhoused community.

We very much look forward to more full community events throughout this year to continue celebrating each and every one of us.
