The Seattle Urban Academy was suggested as a possible destination of a donation. The holiday season is a particularly difficult time for these folks and their needs are very basic. After a brief discussion, it was agreed that a donation to SUA would be appropriate.
Seattle Urban Academy is situated in Seattle's Rainier Valley. SUA is a positive, alternative, Christian, educational community where at-risk high school students develop academic, social, and spiritual maturity to graduate to higher education and sustained employment.

The group also discussed a donation to "The Next Step", a pregnancy services group based in Lynnwood.

It was decided to purchase and donate disposable diapers and diaper wipes to assist them in their work. The diapers and wipes have been delivered and were greatly appreciated by the staff and clients.
