In-Kind Donations
Ways to Give
There are many ways to support Lake City Partners. Make a tax-deductible one-time or recurring donation, volunteer your time or skills to the shelter, or become a partner.
Support our effort to connect vulnerable adults to shelter and housing.
We do not accept ‘drop-off’ donations at any of our locations without prior approval. Please email office@lakecitypartners.org to learn more about what in-kind donations are currenting being accepted. For example, we are no longer accepting donations of general clothes, but at times will be seeking specific items. We recommend donating your items to Deseret Industries in Shoreline or St. Vincent de Paul in Kenmore.
Volunteer with Lake City Partners
Our volunteer community is rich and giving! For meals at Aurora Oaks we partner with the Hunger Intervention Program to provide meals for the residents. We also have a Sack Lunch program for the weekends. Volunteers can make and provide lunches for the residents at Aurora Oaks – please click here if you wish to sign up.
Our GLA Day Center in Lake City is always looking for engaged volunteers to help keep the space clean and engage in support of our unhoused neighbors. It offers laundry, showers, hygiene supplies, companionship & community, a clothing closet, storage, mailing address, food, and a community kitchen. Our Day Center offers a space to just “be” for folks who otherwise don’t have one. Please click here if you wish to learn more.
