Staging was announced the morning of June 13 and we are meant to line up between 1:00pm – 1:30pm on the 4th avenue block between Jefferson and the Yesler Overpass.  That means if you had big plans Saturday night\, this timing is great news!  Do note the staging time is required and not recommended. \n \n  \nWe’ll meet you down 4th in the 21st spot of the line up.  This year’s theme is Galactic love so don’t be surprised if you see a couple of star wars helmets or suits.

If you are coming with a little one\, you are welcome to pull them along in a wagon or even equip your younger ones with a set of wheels of their own to make it through the parade – set to end at 3:30pm. \n  \nThere are safety tents along the route to refill on water or step aside if needed. We will have extra swag that you can hand to the audience but be careful not to throw any items. \n  \nParking is LIMITED. We recommend taking transit to the parade or arriving early to find parking outside of the parade route. Plan to  meet during the staging window between 1:00pm – 1:30pm. \n  \nVolunteers will be enjoying themselves\, walking in the parade\, passing out goodies\, and holding the banner from time-to-time! \n  \nDon’t forget to let us know you’re coming and bring a friend! \n  \nThis activity is a volunteer project hosted by pride at United Way of King County.

SUMMARY:Monthly Volunteer Project: First Children's Day Carnival with El Centro de La Raza!
DESCRIPTION:Join us on June 10 for a monthly volunteer opportunity to support El Centro De La Raza’s first annual Dia De Los Ninos Summer Carnival! The community needs committed volunteers to make this day a success. \n  \nDia De Los Ninos (Day of the Child) is an annual celebration in Latin American culture on April 30\, but living in the Pacific Northwest\, means waiting for perfect weather in June to celebrate. The annual celebration was inaugurated through realizing that literacy went hand-in-hand with supporting the well-being of children. The day promotes bilingual and miltilingual literacy\, involving parents along the continued education journey and honoring culture. \n  \nSupport this first-time event in Federal Way for participants of El Centro De La Raza’s youth programs. \n  \n\nVolunteers will be helping host arts and crafts tables\, photo booths and other supporting roles. (flower crafting\, face painting\, ticketing\, markets etc.)\nVolunteers who speak multiple languages are encouraged but not required. Everyone is welcome to serve!\nDress comfortable and prepare to bond with our students and their families. You can complete shifts or stay for the whole event.\n\nMeet Your Volunteer Lead: Cris!\n \n“Hi Everyone\, \nI enjoy art and meeting the community face-to-face\, so when I heard we could help with face painting at a Dia De Los Ninos celebration I was among the first to volunteer. I look forward to seeing you all there and celebrating with our community. One fun question to break the ice might be “what’s a boring fact about yourself? Mine is that I like a good sturdy box! \nNow you know to things about me – let’s chat more at the carnival.” \n

SUMMARY:Volunteer and Learn: Create Artist Kits for Choose 180's Youth Art Therapy Program
DESCRIPTION:Volunteer and Learn is an opportunity for a more in-depth volunteer experience.

SUMMARY:Monthly Volunteer Project: Summer Meals Are Here!
DESCRIPTION:Did you know that for thousands of children the only meal they will consume in a day comes from their school?\nJoin us on May 13 for a monthly volunteer opportunity to support the Free Summer Meals Program\, ran by United Way of King County. \n  \n\nVolunteers will be preparing and packaging outreach materials so that our school districts and community partners can get the word out about free summer meals in our community. This will help raise awareness for families to know when and where they can access free summer meals while school is out.\n\n  \nHunger is  an especially urgent problem as we face the end of federally funded programs for economic recovery and increasing cost of living. UWKC is working to address food insecurity in our community\, which we know is disproportionately experience by BIPOC households due to historic and systemic racism. The Food Security team falls broadly into two categories: \n  \n  \n\nFeeding Our Community\, where we invest in and support the emergency food system to scale innovative strategies to provide dignified and equitable access to culturally specific\, nutritious food.\nEnding Childhood Hunger\, where we work to increase access to sustainable\, federally funded child nutrition programs like School Meals\, Afterschool and Summer Meals\, and Basic Food (SNAP)\, which have historically been under-utilized by kids and families due to systemic access barriers.\n\n  \nMeet Your Volunteer Lead\n“I look forward to seeing you all at United Way for this opportunity to be of service. One fun fact about me is that I love live-music. I try to go to a show at least once a week to stay inspired. Feel free to chat with each other about what shows you have on the calendar. \nVolunteer With Us! \n  \n  \n  \nThis opportunity is for young professionals. By participating you will receive similar opportunities emailed to you bimonthly. Each opportunity supports United Way of King County’s mission to create racially just communities where all people have homes\, students graduate\, and families are financially stable.
