Bring a group of 3-8, ages 18+, to serve meals at YouthCare's Orion Center which enables staff to concentrate on what they're there for: serving youth. Just as important, by donating food, volunteer groups help us stretch our budget - in the face of pressing need, as the number of meals served at YouthCare has grown significantly in the past few years.
Meals at the Orion Center don't just help youth on the street keep body and soul together: they're key to our staying in touch with them, building trust, and providing services. Lunch (11am-1:30pm) and dinner (4:30pm-7pm) are served Monday through Friday. Groups of 3-8 people prepare and serve meals for 40-60 youth for each meal.
We make it easy! YouthCare staff provides full support for your group including Meal Provider guidelines, recipes, on-site support, a fully-appointed kitchen and more. We look forward to working with you to create a rewarding experience for you and your group.

Mission Statement
YouthCare builds confidence and self-sufficiency for homeless youth by providing a continuum of care that includes outreach, basic services, emergency shelter, housing, counseling, education, and employment training.
Description
Founded in 1974, YouthCare was the first shelter for homeless youth in the Western United States and continues to be a leader in providing services to this vulnerable population. Beginning as a three-bed shelter for runaways, YouthCare has grown and expanded to become a community-based agency with six sites serving the greater Seattle area.
Today, YouthCare’s services range from street outreach and residential housing to education and employment training.
