HOLIDAY HELPING: Baking cookies for The Christmas People? Date change

| Holidays | How to help | West Seattle news

Every holiday season, The Christmas People prepare and serve meals to people in need. To make those meals just a bit sweeter and more festive, they send out a call for people to bake and donate homemade cookies. As mentioned here and in our Holiday Guide, the dropoff spot for your home-baked-cookie contributions this year is West Seattle Coworking‘s south location, 9030 35th SW. But Ross from WSC tells us there’s a change in the dropoff dates from what we were originally given, so we wanted to let you know: Now it’s Thursday, Friday, and Saturday (December 22-24), 9 am-3 pm. Again, homemade cookies only, not store-bought. The Christmas People thank you! (Image from Pixabay)

Nice change of days to drop off due to the fact some neighborhoods streets are unsafe to get to the main roads.

We will be baking. Thanks for the reminder!

I’d love to donate some cookies. I’ve looked at their website and can’t figure out how they would like them packaged. Does anyone know if one big ziplock is ok or it they should be individually wrapped? Thank you!

West Seattle Coworking December 21, 2022 (9:31 pm)

Ziplock is great. We will take care of the packaging. Thank you. See you tomorrow

Yearly Christmas Dinner

Served to those in need.

2020 marked our 22nd year— Once again we teamed up with Alki Masonic Center in West Seattle. On Christmas Day we opened the dining room, offering a hot meal and entertainment for any homeless, senior citizen or any other person who chose to join us. Over 80 persons attended our Christmas Day Dinner. The doors were open from Noon to 4pm. This proved to be another fantastic opportunity to share a meal, fellowship and love with those in need.

Sorry, comment time is over.
