As Mary’s Place commemorates 25 years of community, service, and love, we’re grateful for the many hands, hearts, and minds that have made it possible for us to bring thousands of unsheltered women and families inside.

Angela was inspired to become a Mary’s Place monthly donor when she learned about our work to prevent homelessness before families with children lose their housing.

Some of the biggest barriers families transitioning to housing face are getting donated furniture items that fit their needs and getting them delivered to their new home.

t didn't take long for kids to jump around on the new padded floors, take the tricycles for a spin, and gather around new games and toys with their friends in the newly refreshed Kids Club at our family shelter in Burien.

“We’re fortunate to have stability and a little extra to sustain our life and we want to see all families in that position - that’s why we donate monthly to Mary’s Place!”

“If it weren’t for Mary’s Place, I’m not sure where I would be right now” shares Tanya, a single mother who came to Mary’s Place while she was pregnant with her baby girl, Bella.

Jessica Safley leads Mary's Place’s team of mobile outreach specialists. For this team, meeting families where they are both physically and emotionally and helping to remove barriers to housing is paramount.

Birthdays are a big deal for kids! Thanks to a partnership with local nonprofit Birthday Dreams, the birthday wishes of kids at Mary’s Place come true with monthly group parties where each child is celebrated.

For the last 25 years, Mary’s Place has provided wrap around services to women and families experiencing homelessness with the help of compassionate, dedicated, LOVING, volunteers!

We've all heard "financial literacy," but what does it mean? To Mary's Place volunteer Andrea Linsky, it means the tools to have healthy finances, and she believes it's an essential skill everyone should have the opportunity to learn!
