Other Ways to Give

Donate monetary funds to food banks

Why donate money?

Food banks can purchase food at a reduced rate, so your dollar goes further—helping to feed more people. For every $1 donated, a food bank can provide five meals to neighbors in need. To donate, visit your local foodbank online or in person.

Consider giving blood

Throughout the United States, blood donation centers are experiencing shortages. Blood is necessary to provide lifesaving treatments to a variety of patients. By donating blood, you can directly help others experiencing illness or injury. Consider scheduling an appointment to donate.

Is it safe?

Like other healthcare facilities, blood donation centers in Washington continue to follow COVID-19 guidelines to protect the safety of donors and staff.
