We seek to help people obtain housing and also provide assistance to those who are interested in pursuing their educational goals, whether trade, academic or otherwise. We partner with local service agencies to work together to help our neighbors. Currently we operate a Hygiene Center in Lynnwood, providing showers and restroom facilities 6 days a week. We are supported by generous donations from

the community and grants from Verdant Health Commission, Hazel Miller Foundation, Community Foundation of Snohomish County and Alderwood Terrace Rotary Club.

The Jean Kim Foundation was awarded a grant from Providence General Foundation for $12,758 to fund 850 duplicated showers.

Mark Johnson, Chief Philanthropy Officer for Providence General Foundation in Everett, states:

"Providence General Foundation is honored to support this important work. The dignity and health promoting effects of a shower and access to basic services align perfectly with Providence's mission to serve all-especially the most vulnerable."

We appreciate the support from Providence General Foundation.
Thank you on behalf of the Jean Kim Foundation.

Our shipment of Bomba socks will not arrive for a couple of months. In the meantime, we are out of men's and women's socks. We typically provide 2 pairs of socks daily to each guest especially if it is raining or the weather is inclement. We are also out of stock of men's boxer briefs and women's underwear. If you have any of these items, please consider donating them to the Hygiene Center. Thanks!
