This year's charities:
Each year, more than 60,000 King County residents come to Solid Ground to address urgent food, housing and transportation needs, and build skills to overcome poverty and thrive.
Solid Ground was founded in 1974 by community leaders and concerned citizens of one of Seattle's then most economically devastated neighborhoods, Fremont. Originally called the Fremont Public Association, our services - emergency food bank, clothing bank, and employment program - reflected the desperate needs and determined response of a mobilized and committed neighborhood.
The ROOTS Young Adult Shelter opened in 1999 as the result of the community identifying a significant unmet need for shelter specifically for young people between 18 and 25, and is the largest shelter of its type in Seattle/King County. ROOTS has helped young people find a safe place to sleep for over fifteen years now, thanks to contributions by foundation and business funders, the City of Seattle, and individuals who donate time and money. We address basic needs by providing emergency shelter, nutritious food, and supportive services. In 2014, the ROOTS Young Adult Shelter provided 14,991 bed nights and served 647 unduplicated guests.
