Step Up With Us to Provide Emergency Support for Students During Loss of Federal SNAP Benefit

We are stepping forward with additional emergency resources to ensure Seattle students can stay focused on learning and not where their next meal will come from.  The Alliance is activating an additional $150,000 in emergency gift cards through the Right Now Needs Fund program this November. Connect with your school’s social worker or family support worker to receive a gift card or make a donation online to support this direct action.
