On May 24th, 2018, the West Seattle Helpline is proud to host the 13th annual "Taste of West Seattle."
This local, community-based food fair is the largest event of its kind in West Seattle. We will feature food and drink from over 40 different restaurants, breweries, wineries, coffee shops, bakeries, chocolatiers, specialty food stores and more!
All proceeds from the event go directly to support the West Seattle Helpline’s emergency assistance programs for low-income individuals and families in West Seattle who are recovering from a crisis or unexpected hardship.
In order for the night to run well, we are looking for volunteers!
Roles will include (but are not limited to) checking-in attendees with tickets for the event, selling raffle tickets for fabulous prizes, assisting with set-up/clean-up, and even manning our photo-booth!
Volunteer shifts will run from either 5:30-7:30 (Shift A) or (ESPECIALLY NEEDED) 7:15-9:15 (Shift B) pm, ranging in length from 2-4 hours long. As an added bonus, volunteers are also welcome to enjoy the event free of charge during the shift they are not scheduled!
Note: volunteers must be 21+ years, as there will be alcohol at the event!
Join us in strengthening our wonderful and caring West Seattle community through food, friends, and fun!

Mission Statement
The West Seattle Helpline is a non-profit social service agency offering temporary emergency assistance for West Seattle neighbors. We provide financial aid and referral advice to members of our community who find themselves in need. We also have a clothing bank where families can get 3 free outfits every two months. By providing access to a wide range of information and community services we also help people find their way toward self-sufficiency.
Description
Each year we help approximately 1,200 West Seattle residents who, because of illness, loss of employment, disability, limited income, or a combination of circumstances, find themselves in need. Our services include direct aid toward rent, utilities, food, clothes, transportation, and referrals to other needed services. We do problem solving with clients to find long-term solutions. The Helpline is funded by individuals, churches, and businesses in West Seattle.
