Volunteer: Sew Face Masks for Lafayette Elementary PTA

Lafayette PTA is in need of 2 layer cloth face masks to help prevent the spread of COVID-19 among our STAFF/STUDENTS who will begin in-person learning on April 5th.  The school district has provided cloth face masks but these are too large for our young learners.  The PTA has purchased disposable face masks but ideally we would like to provide reusable cloth face masks for students who need them for in-person learning. Please read this page for more information about sewing face masks.

We are requesting 20 masks for children in grades K through 5th grade. If you’re able to provide some or all of these masks, please click “respond” and we will reach out to you to confirm the number of masks you can provide and delivery details. We ask that each volunteer responding to this request plan to make at least 5 masks.

Finished masks can be delivered to us on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday or Friday between 8am-4pm at the front of the school at:

Volunteer: Cook and Package Hot Meals for Homeless Young People

Join us in supporting young people in Seattle's University District! Teen Feed works with the community to offer support to meet basic needs, build strong relationships, and ally with homeless youth as they meet their future off the streets. Teen Feed meets youth nightly with a hot, home-cooked, and nutritious dinner along with access to basic needs and caring adults. Street Outreach teams meet young people where they're at, providing resources and access to youth-centered case management. 

Since COVID, Teen Feed has transitioned to hot to-go meal service. Volunteers will help cook or package hot meals in our kitchen, which will be distributed to young people by trained staff. Dinner volunteer opportunities available in the University District from 6:30 - 8:30 pm. 

**Some safety considerations: We are asking that at this time anyone who may fall into a high-risk category does not participate in person at dinner. Please reach out if you need further clarification on what "high risk" might look like. Additionally - we are working to limit our in-person teams to no more than 3 or 4 individuals at a time in order to comply with social distancing. Face masks required at all times, do *not* come in person if you are feeling unwell or have any symptoms of illness. 

The minimum age is 15, must be accompanied by a parent or guardian until age 18. 

Click "respond" and we will follow up with you to schedule a shift!

Volunteer: Alpha Supported Living Services is asking for In-kind donations to keep our clients and staff safe in their homes

Right now, our main challenge is finding the necessary personal protective equipment, cleaning supplies and other supplies necessary to serve our clients and the staff in their homes. As people continue to deplete the stock in the stores, we are trying to secure gloves, gowns, masks, goggles, disinfecting wipes and sprays, bleach, hand sanitizer, hand soap, paper towels and other supplies necessary to properly disinfect the homes and provide protection for our staff and the individuals we support. There is a lack of resources, so we are worried that our current supply will not last throughout this crisis.  

Unlike other businesses, we can’t follow the recommendations from the CDC and Department of Health and have our staff work from home. Our staff provide 24-7 care in the homes to the individuals we support, so we need to continue to provide staffing in the homes. 

Specific items we are in need of currently are:

Hand Sanitizer

Disinfecting Spray

N-95 Masks

Grocery Store Gift Cards for our clients

Our staff have been very creative at finding sources of PPE and other necessary products but when we find them we must act fast. Monetary donations are gladly accepted to go directly to our COVID19 response. 

 

You can mail your donations to:

Alpha Supported Living Services

16030 Juanita Woodinville Way NE

Bothell, WA  98011 or go directly to our website 

www.alphasls.org

 

Our office is closed to visitors and volunteers, please contact Dave Bushnell at dbushnell@alphasls.org if you have any questions in regards to your donation.

 

Thank you so much for helping us!
