Surviving the Streets - Helping the Homeless in Seattle

Sponsor: The Finish Company / Real Change
Date: Annually November 1st through November 23rd.

Real Change and  Finish Co are working together to provide clothing and goods to help the homeless with there basic needs.  We do a large scale give away on Thanksgiving day and collect warm hats, gloves, socks, sleeping bags, boots, back packs and rain ponchos for the homeless community. This year we saw over 175 homeless and gave away warm weather gear. We gave out over 100 sleeping bags, 100's of socks and gloves and much more. It was a great success and we could not have done it without the help of the Sherwin Williams, Rodda and Parker Paint stores being designated drop off points around Seattle as well has all of the volunteers and the people at Real Change... Thank you everyone and look forward to next year.

People living on the street need coats, warm hats, gloves, socks, sleeping
bags, boots, back packs and rain ponchos (please donate only new or useable
gear). We are also excepting tax-deductible cash donations.  100% of the
money raised will be spent to purchase the items listed above.
