Who We Are

Operating on the premise that nutritional excellence is a right we are born to and not a privilege we earn, OSL continues to be a lifeline to nutritious meals for our most challenged and compromised citizens… With more than 15 million no cost meals served, the rescue and redistribution of more than 5 million pounds of quality meal ingredients, and the establishment of 7 additional satellite programs under the direction of what we call the “Mother-Ship”…OSL is unique in that it is critical to Seattle’s emergency meal system. Those we serve are often unable to access food in more conventional ways and our Open Meal Service Site is the last line of defense for those in our community living directly on the streets.

What We Do

OSL is the largest and the only, Health Department compliant, outside congregate meal and basic necessities provider in the State of Washington. We provide nutritional meals and basic life necessities to the homeless children, teens, women and men, who congregate in Seattle. We also provide emergency housing assistance and education assistance. In the greater community we provide pro-active volunteer opportunities and a compelling education presentation for schools, civic and faith based organizations and businesses on poverty, hunger, homelessness, community service, and discrimination awareness.
