Our Mission: We remove barriers to health with relentless compassion so that no one faces illness and injustice alone.

Lifelong was founded by volunteers in the '80s in response to the HIV/AIDS crisis, delivering meals to folks with HIV. Lifelong has expanded since then and merged with the Northwest AIDS Alliance and Evergreen Health, and we now serve individuals with a wide range of chronic medical conditions including cancer, diabetes, and kidney disease, as well as seniors and folks with disabilities. We deliver medically tailored meals and culturally relevant grocery bags to people's homes primarily in King and Snohomish counties. 

In 2023 we delivered 280,000 meals and 44,000 grocery bags to folks in need.

Where you come in

Lifelong is seeking volunteers to help out in our Kitchen to prepare and package medically tailored meals for clients who are living with serious illnesses. Our Kitchen Volunteers play an important role in helping homebound individuals maintain their health and independence by preparing delicious and nutritious meals. No cooking experience is necessary!

Thank you for your interest in supporting the work that we do!

Our Mission

We remove barriers to health with relentless compassion so that no one faces illness and injustice alone.

Our History

We have always fought for those living with HIV and we always will.

In the 1980s, elected officials and other local and national leaders displayed cruelty and bigotry when they refused to support the services and research needed to combat the early surge of the HIV epidemic. A handful of volunteers witnessed their friends, partners, and neighbors neglected and left to die.

They were compelled to fight back and mobilized the community to unite against injustice. They made a lifesaving difference in the lives of thousands through an assembly of chore wheels, hospital visitation calendars, and the establishment of new non-profit organizations. They helped create us, Northwest AIDS Foundation, Chicken Soup Brigade, and Evergreen Wellness Advocates, which became Lifelong.

The need is greater now than ever! 

Where you come in

Lifelong's Chicken Soup Brigade (CSB) needs volunteers to lift and stack boxes, unload trucks, repackage, bag, prepare, and pack grocery bags in our warehouse. The warehouse is the foundation of our work in getting food to clients who are living with serious illnesses. With nearly 1.5 million pounds of food coming through our door every year, we need all hands on deck to help process the donations.

Our volunteer sessions are fun, rewarding, and inclusive! 

Ages: Ages 16+

We typically need volunteers to help us run our syringe services program and to pack kits for us (overdose reversal kits, wound care kits, etc.), but would love to discuss your specific schedule and interests in order to find the best fit for you as a volunteer at our organization. Have your own ideas about how you can support our work? Let's talk about it!

This is an incredible opportunity for anyone who enjoys talking to people and supporting our neighbors. Come help us in our mission to prevent overdose deaths and the spread of hepatitis in our community!

Our SSP is open Monday-Thursday from 12:30PM-5:30PM. We are currently looking for a weekly volunteer who can work the full shift on Wednesdays, but we are open to discussing shorter or less frequent shifts if needed.

Before School Care
M, T, Th, F, 6:30-7:30 am

Begin your day by being a positive presence for Lake Hills elementary Students before they head to school. Serve breakfast, assist with homework, or invest time getting to know them.

After School Care
M, T, Th, F, 3:00-5:00 pm
& Wed 1:00-5:00 pm

All profits from the Thrift Store come back to Jubilee REACH and right back into the community. In order to keep costs low at the store, we keep a minimal staff on board. This means that we need LOTS of helping hands. Every hour volunteered at the Thrift Store is giving funds back to the community.

Thrift Store Duties: Daily, our store receives a steady flow of donated items, and without help, these donations can add up quickly. Volunteers help us process these donations, prepare them to be priced, and put them out on the sales floor. Tasks typically involve hanging clothes, pairing up shoes, cutting price tags, re-arranging items on shelves, organizing books, and helping keep the sales floor "shoppable."

Come and help us sort and organize food and donations at the Issaquah Food & Clothing Bank.   We run a 2-week schedule so please check the signup www.issaquahfoodbank.org/volunteer for details.

Bridge is all about inclusion- especially those challenged with disabilities.  We support and participate in various social events that give those with disabilities an opportunity to socialize and have fun together.  One of those activities is called our Sunday Evening Celebrations (SEC). 

Once a month on a Sunday evening we meet to eat dinner, play games, sing and sometimes do crafts.  These are meetings that are loaded with fun and give everyone an opportunity- guest and volunteer alike- to form friendships and enjoy spending time together. 

We hope you will want to get to know Bridge better and there is no better way than to attend an SEC.  Come check us out!

The YWCA has multiple sites, multiple child care positions, and multiple dates/times available.

Most of our childcare positions are to help our program support groups, when parents come together to either attend a class, or a support group. The parents are usually in one room, and the kids are with a staff member having a program themselves, and that's where you'd be. Supervising the kids, helping with projects, and making sure everyone stays safe while having fun! 
 

If this is something you'd like to move forward on, we will start by having you do an online profile, get some references and paperwork. Then one more meeting with who would be your direct supervisor who’ll do a small orientation to learn some of the challenges working with homeless or domestic violence populations.

Once the staff signs off on your interview, we do a background check, and when that clears, you're ready to go!

We are really looking for long term committed volunteers, and would love to get your started on the process, so please let me know if you'd like to move forward and when you might be available for an interview.

Thank you so much for your interest.
