Tukwila #2 Cohort, WA

Together for 5 Years

Each Cohort lasts five years so relationships can strengthen, processes can develop, and internal structures can be built. Together, Emergency Feeding Program, Partner in Employment, and Ukrainian Community Center meet quarterly to present grant proposals to each other, vote on new grants, share progress updates, and seek advice on new challenges as they build capacity and grow.

The mission of Emergency Feeding Program is to provide an emergency response to the nutritional needs of people in crisis hunger situations throughout Greater Seattle and King County.
