There are lots of ways to help our local homeless population this time of year.
Kay Wagner Wellness in Mukilteo is holding a Blanket and Warm Clothing drive, which accepts donations through December 22. According to Kay Wagner, there are over 800 homeless children in Snohomish County. Another drive is tentatively set to begin sometime in 2014—stay tuned to our Facebook page for more updates!
If you’d like to donate, you can bring your used or gently used (and clean!) men’s, women’s, or children’s items in plastic bags to the Kay Wagner Wellness studio, located at 828 2nd Street in Mukilteo. All donations will be sent to the Everett Gospel Mission—a local organization that provides the area’s homeless with basic supplies, job opportunities, and spiritual guidance.
Bothell/Seattle-area residents are known for their generosity—earlier this year, Snohomish County’s one-day Project Homeless Connect event was a huge success—serving over 1,200 meals, distributing over 1,200 pairs of sneakers, distributing 941 bags filled with supplies, giving 276 haircuts, providing care to 132 cats and dogs, and more.
