TAKE ACTION NOW
Provide a Meal
Food is our biggest need! Do you enjoy cooking? Use your skills to provide healthy, delicious meals for young people in our care. Cook at home and deliver to one of our shelter or housing programs so youth can get the nourishment they need to reach their potential! To learn more or sign up, click here!
Host a Safe Place Awareness Campaign!
Use your voice to spread knowledge and awareness about Safe Place, a resource that connects runaway and homeless youth ages 12-17 to help 24/7, anywhere in King County. You have the power to help your peers be aware of this important resource. Get creative and spread the word—launch your Safe Place Awareness Campaign today. Email volunteer@youthcare.org to get started.
Make Fleece Blankets
Help youth stay warm with homemade no-sew blankets! This is a fun and creative way to help youth. These blankets will get lots of love in the apartment a young person just moved into, in one of our shelters, or anywhere where youth can snuggle up and feel its warmth. You can volunteer on your own time and make these blankets anywhere! Pick out some fun (youth-appropriate) fleece and a pair of scissors! We recommend this YouTube video to get instructions. We need twin-sized or queen-sized blankets the most!
