We are looking for one to two passionate people to lead a journaling class for members of the Senior Center half of Pike Market Senior Center and Food Bank.
In downtown Seattle, the Pike Market Senior Center strives to make each day better and safer for older adults; the Pike Market Food Bank serves people of all ages who face hunger. Together, we provide services, activities, and support that lead to more self sufficient and fulfilling lives.
Journaling can help seniors work through worries, become more in touch with their needs, and give them an outlet for their thoughts. Since over 90% of Pike Market Senior Center's members are low-income or very low-income, participating in the free meals and wellness engagement programs at the Senior Center can help them meet their need for nutrition, community, and connection. We hope to start a journaling class through the wellness engagement program to continue supporting our members' personal needs.This class would ideally take place twice a month at Pike Market Senior Center. We can work out specific times and dates with the right volunteer.

Description
The Pike Market Senior Center & Food Bank is located in the historic Pike Place Market. We have been serving our neighbors in the heart of Seattle since 1978.
The Senior Center serves people age 55 and up. Membership is free and there are no fees for meals, services or regular activities. While people from all walks of life are members of PMSC, we are pioneers in offering senior center programming to elders who are homeless.
The Food Bank serves people of any age, offering free groceries, ready-to-eat food for clients experiencing homelessness, and home delivery for qualified residents of Downtown Seattle. We serve 800 in-person grocery clients weekly and distribute over 300 grocery deliveries.
