Description

OPERATION: Sack Lunch is a unique provider. The people we serve are unable to access food in more conventional ways. We are the last line of defense for those in the homeless community living directly on the streets. For many we are the last place they can find a decent meal, for the rest we are the only way to ward off starvation. We are the in-house provider for the Compass Center providing breakfast and a midday meal as well as providing sack lunches for, Hammond House Women's Overnight Shelter, First Church Men's Emergency Shelter, PSKS (peace on the streets by kids from the streets ) an advocacy program for homeless teenagers and young adults, and the Seattle Municlpal Community Court Program. Over the years we have provided meals for First Place School for homeless children, Tent City, Gethsemane Crisis Center, Labor Ready of Seattle, and Angeline's(a day shelter for women).
