September is Hunger Action Month, and we are fortunate to collaborate with incredible partners who support our Food Programs in the fight against hunger while advocating for access to healthy, culturally relevant foods. One of our partners in this work is Viva Farms, a non-profit who works to lower barriers for beginning farmers by providing a variety of resources including bilingual training in organic farming practice, land, infrastructure, equipment, marketing, and capital. When we work together to increase access to healthy and nutritious foods, our whole community can thrive.
关于我们
Hopelink is a nonprofit organization working to end poverty in our community. Each year we help more than 64,000 low-income people through programs that provide stability and the skills and knowledge needed to exit poverty. Since 1971, Hopelink has provided support services to people in need in north and east King County and transportation services in King and Snohomish Counties in Washington state. We are a Community Action Agency with programs and services ranging from food banks, energy assistance and housing to literacy training and employment skills, transportation and family development. Hopelink is based in Redmond, Washington, with service centers and food banks in Bellevue, Kirkland, Redmond, Sno-Valley (Carnation) and Shoreline. In addition to ongoing programs and services, Hopelink also manages several campaigns specifically geared toward helping children: End Summer Hunger helps ensure that kids on summer break have enough to eat when their school's free and reduced fee meals are not available; Kids Need School Supplies provides backpacks and back-to-school tools for kids in low-income families; and Lend a Hoping Hand provides holiday gift rooms where parents and grandparents can "shop" for toys and gifts. Annual events include Hopelink Can Madness -- a bracketed tournament between local businesses to help stock food banks following the holidays; an annual October fundraising luncheon at Meydenbauer Center in Bellevue (attended by about 1,800 guests every year); and the Turkey Trot 5K Family Fun Run & Walk on the Sunday before Thanksgiving. Every year, nearly 4,000 volunteers donate over 62,000 hours; helping people and changing lives.

We were thrilled to support our partners at the Carnation Chamber of Commerce by sponsoring the inaugural Snoqualmie Valley Sunflower Festival—a vibrant celebration of agriculture, heritage, and natural beauty, running through September 15th! ??? Last Saturday, we enjoyed an incredible day at the grand celebration in downtown Carnation, featuring amazing vendors, unique arts and crafts, and engaging activities. It was a fantastic opportunity to celebrate our wonderful community in the Valley!

This week, we welcomed Congresswoman Suzan DelBene to our Kirkland Market & Service Center to learn more about our Food, Energy, and Housing programs. We reached out to the Congresswoman to highlight the need to protect access to Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) in the 2024 Farm Bill. In addition to markets like ours, SNAP benefits allow for more equitable food access by helping families access nutritious and culturally relevant foods. Thank you, Congresswoman DelBene, for your work towards ending food insecurity in our community!
