The Senior Center is a great place to spend some volunteer time. The staff are amazing and the seniors who come to the center are always a delite to work with.

I’m interested in volunteering in your westside friends program. I’m currently a stay at home mom with kids, one in Jr. high and the other in high school. My days (until I pick up my daughter at 3:00) are pretty open. I am a graduate of pacific Lutheran university. With a major in fine art and a minor in creative writing. I lived in Glasgow Scotland for six months and attended the Glasgow school of art. I got married to my sweet hubby in summer of 1998. We ( along with our two kids, 2 dogs and several chickens) live near alki beach. Before I had children I worked as an art teacher at the local high school (Seattle Lutheran high school) for several years. I taught pottery, painting and art history. After that I became a general contractor and fixed up houses for resale. Ideally I would be available late mornings and early afternoon. Please let me know if this might be a good fit. Thank you for your consideration. Katie Saadalkikate@gmail.com206-920-7223

Hi! Please email the contact listed in the announcement directly – I don’t think they’re going to be checking comments here for prospective volunteers – but thank you so much for offering to help!

Sorry, comment time is over.
