It's that time of the year and PSKS is kicking off their Secret Santa Program. We are looking for giving trees with themes; Book Tree, Shoe Tree, Winter Response Tree and Hobby Tree. We have individual clients that need sponsoring and help fulfilling one wish and two needs. We also have pets if you are interested in sponsoring a dog or cat! We also can use bakers to make holiday treats for both our human and non human guest. I look forward to hearing from you in hopes you, your family or your place of worship or work would be interested partnering up with us.
Thanks for your support!

"On Friday the 14th of October - the Eat2Feed program held its first homeless food event in partnership with PeaceForTheStreets - a homeless youth support group in Seattle.The location for the event was at: 1814 Summit Avenue, Seattle, 98122, at 5.30pm, for a duration of 2 hours. MAPS IOC members present were: Tarek Dawood, Kazi Al-Rashid, Liza Kazi, Sadi Khan.
It was a resounding success for our first event. There were approximately 30 people in attendance in a variety of age brackets - with a high concentration of youth-aged folks. The event centered on providing a warm meal to homeless or needy youth in the Seattle region while providing a sit-down environment for the youth and MAPS IOC members to discuss and learn from one another."
Join Eat2Feed on Facebook today. Enjoy a good meal, save money, and feed the homeless people of Seattle.
