Wish List

FamilyWorks Seattle functions largely on donations from you – our community. In addition to monetary and food donations, we also provide miscellaneous items to families as needed and as available. Some of these items include diapers (just 12 per family per week!), bus tickets to reduce barriers in coming to the food bank and resource center, cribs, strollers, and car seats. For liability reasons, many of these items have restrictions on what we can accept (e.g. car seats must be less than 5 years old, not have been in a crash, not have been recalled, and the straps cannot have been washed in a washing machine). Please call FamilyWorks at (206) 694-6727 if you are interested in donating items, and we will confirm that there is a community need for them at that time and that they meet the liability restrictions. Thank you very much for your thoughts and consideration of FamilyWorks and the families we serve!
