City of Tukwila

Mission Statement

The goal of the City of Tukwila Volunteer Program is to enhance the spirit of partnership that City government encourages and enjoys with Tukwila citizens. Citizens, by volunteering, gain an opportunity to learn and interact with City employees on municipal concerns and projects. The City, utilizing the time and experience of volunteers, can provide more and better services. Together the City and Tukwila citizens can achieve the City's mission of "...preserving and enhancing a vibrant and healthy quality of life by providing caring, effective, and efficient service." In providing volunteer opportunities, the City is committed to adhering to State and Federal laws and to upholding professional and ethical standards. These include a commitment to not directly replace employees or paid positions with volunteers and to provide volunteer opportunities that utilize and value talent and expertise.
