Austin, TX (Park Cleanup) Clean, accessible green spaces make cities better places to live, so our Austin team spent their Week of Service keeping it that way.
Chicago (Bike Donation Warehouse) Reliable transportation changes what’s possible for people. Our Chicago team spent their Week of Service restoring donated bikes so more community members can get to work, school and everything in between.
Seattle (Habitat Restoration) Healthy ecosystems don’t maintain themselves. Our Seattle team partnered with Forterra to restore native habitat and protect the natural spaces that make the Pacific Northwest worth living in.
Madison, WI (Farm/Community Garden) Food insecurity affects millions of families. Our Madison team spent their Week of Service working a local community farm to help make fresh food more accessible to the people who need it most.
Seattle (Food Lifeline) One in eight people in Washington face hunger. Our team spent their Week of Service at Food Lifeline doing what they could to help close that gap, one meal at a time.
Seattle (OSL Serves) No one should go without a warm meal. Our team spent their Week of Service with OSL Serves, an organization that shows up every day to make sure they don’t.
Seattle (Youth Supply Warehouse) Foster youth deserve every advantage that other kids may take for granted. Our Seattle team spent their Week of Service with Treehouse making sure more foster kids have what they need to succeed.
Seattle (Children’s Donation Warehouse) The earliest years of a child’s life shape everything that comes after. Our team spent their Week of Service at West Side Baby ensuring more infants and toddlers in our community have the books, clothing and supplies they deserve.
Denver (Denver Urban Gardens) Access to fresh, homegrown food shouldn’t depend on your zip code. Our Denver team spent their Week of Service building raised garden beds at Denver Urban Gardens so more families across the city have a place to grow their own.
