With over 37,700 people in King County filing initial unemployment claims the first week in May, it’s more important than ever to ensure that children in our community are getting the nutrition they need. A nationwide April 2020 COVID Impact Survey showed that one in five households with children 12 and under have children who are currently experiencing food insecurity.
We have thoroughly enjoyed our annual Lake Sammamish Fireworks show to raise funds for children facing food insecurity in our community. Unfortunately, we will not be able to hold our 2020 fireworks display due to safety restrictions. We hope that you will find alternate ways to make your 4th of July celebration special this year and plan to join us for a huge celebration in July of 2021!
Would you please help us continue our long-time commitment to the Summer Lunch Program at the Issaquah Food & Clothing Bankdespite the inability to hold our annual fireworks show? A $100 gift can provide a child with breakfast, lunch and snack foods for an entire month this summer. Please consider giving a gift online:
