Our Mission: We remove barriers to health with relentless compassion so that no one faces illness and injustice alone.
Our Vision: Health For All
Nothing is more rewarding than feeding people! Help deliver groceries and medically tailored meals from the Chicken Soup Brigade to our clients who are home-bound and/or facing serious illnesses.
Volunteer delivery drivers are the heart and soul of our food program, delivering thousands of bags of groceries as well as medically tailored meals each week to our clients. You will deliver food to the homes of a group of clients once per week. Routes take 60-90 minutes to complete on average, volunteers deliver to around 8 clients per route, and we can try to find a route near your home since there's no need to return to Lifelong's warehouse after your route is complete.
We are looking for support Monday through Saturday, with the following routes being the highest need currently:
- Monday - Central District, Mt. Baker, Tukwila, SeaTac
- Tuesday - Burien, White Center, Riverton
- Wednesday - Ravenna, U-District, First Hill, Marysville/Arlington, North Lynwood, Everett
- Thursday - Renton, Bellevue, Capitol Hill
- Friday - Kent, Federal Way, Green River
- Saturday - Redmond, North Seattle, Skyway/Bryn Mawr (bi-weekly)
Commitment: 1 shift per week for at least 6 months (planned vacations ok as long as they are communicated to us!)
Qualifications: Must be 16 years old or older, have a driver’s license, and a vehicle with proof of insurance. Must be vaccinated for COVID-19. Training for the role is provided.
From compassion to action. Volunteer with us today!

Mission Statement
We remove barriers to health with relentless compassion so that no one faces illness and injustice alone.
Description
LIFELONG HAS ALWAYS BEEN AN ORGANIZATION THAT STANDS UP FOR COMMUNITIES FACING ILLNESS AND INJUSTICE.
Everyone deserves the chance to live their healthiest life, but that vision is out of reach for far too many people. For nearly 40 years, Lifelong has fought for marginalized communities with relentless compassion-because no one should have to battle stigma, judgment, or the devastating effects of illness alone. Our wraparound care model supports the whole person by breaking down barriers and improving access to nutritious food, stable housing, and vital health resources for people living with diabetes, HIV, kidney disease, and other life-challenging illnesses. Our community support network fills the gaps in broken systems and ensures that everyone has an equitable opportunity to thrive.
