Help Tacoma’s unhoused neighbors one sandwich at a time!
Want to volunteer but prefer to do so offsite? Have a youth group that's too young to serve onsite? Either way, we have you covered!
Nativity House Shelter needs volunteers to make and donate sandwiches or snacks packs that can be easily handed out to community members experiencing homelessness.
Nativity House Kitchen serves as a primary Hilltop "food hub" with meal deliveries going out Monday-Saturday to our sister sites serving unhoused adults and families.
Sandwich donations are used at Nativity House Shelter, the Stability Site, and at the Family Housing Network Safe Parking Program (Holy Rosary Church).
Nativity House Shelter is staffed 24/7. Please call 253-500-8090 when you arrive to drop off sandwiches/snack. Donations can be dropped off at the Nativity House Kitchen Loading Dock.
Quick Facts:
- No act of kindness is ever too small. Every sandwich feeds someone in need.
- Labeling is an essential part of food safety. Please mark food donations with the date made and type of sandwich or food item. This is helpful in alerting guests about common food allergens (i.e. wheat, peanuts, etc.).
- Ziploc style bags do a great job at keeping sandwiches fresh and make them super easy to distribute.
