Past Events

Thank you Annah and Delia for your generous hospitality in hosting our annual Christmas Party on Saturday, December 1st.  Thirteen members and friends enjoyed a wonderful spread of ham, a varied spread of potluck items and desserts.  Also a big thank you to those contributing to the purchase of blankets for Seattle's Tent City 5. Wishing everyone a safe and joyous holiday season.

In celebration of our 45 years all members and friends of Dignity are welcome to our anniversary dinner celebration at 6pm on Sunday, October 28, 2018 at the Ivar's Salmon House.  Please RSVP before October 20 with your menu selection.  Check the dinner invitation for additional information.  Looking forward to sharing the joys with friends met through Dignity over the years.

On Tuesday, October 16, four Dignity/Seattle members together with almost a dozen volunteers from other organizations sorted through several tons of potatoes to rescue over 7100 pounds of perfectly edible spuds.  Also recovered were a few oddly shaped spuds that would unlikely be found in a grocery store. The potatoes were boxed, weighed, stacked on pallets, and staged for an early morning pickup for distribution to approximately 275 food banks in Western Washington. We hope you can join us for our next Food Lifeline volunteer evening on Tuesday, December 4th.

What happens to the food you donate to the USPS Stamp Out Hunger Food Drive?
Guided by the watchful eye of The Food Lifeline Volunteer Coordinator, Adam Fox, four Dignity/Seattle members sorted a variety of items donated during the US Postal Service's May 12th Stamp Out Hunger Food Drive.  During our 2 hour operation together with volunteers from other organizations we stacked ten pallets of nutritious and supplemental food items and readied them for delivery to Food Banks in Western Washington. Hope you can join us for the next Food Lifeline volunteer night on October 2nd.

Ten members and friends enjoyed a real feast at Becky's home in North Seattle on Saturday, July 28th. As last year, Dignity/Seattle provided the burgers, dog, and buns while attendees contributed a wide assortment of salads, sides, drinks, and desserts. The weather was perfect under the shade of Becky's large backyard tree.  Vasco did a superb job as this year's grill master.  Thanks to Becky for again hosting the summer picnic at her home's lovely backyard.  Wishing everyone a pleasant second half to our Seattle summer.  - the Dignity/Seattle Board
