Food insecurity continues to impact many families across King County and ensuring people are fed has always been a shared responsibility.
At this year’s Home Team Harvest event hosted by Northwest Harvest, the Muckleshoot Tribe contributed $50,000 to support hunger relief efforts across the region. Councilmembers Virginia Cross and Anita Mitchell attended the event on behalf of the Tribe.
Muckleshoot has partnered with Northwest Harvest for nearly 25 years supporting efforts to address hunger and food access for families throughout King County. The tribe also contributes to food banks and hunger relief programs throughout the year recognizing that access to food is foundational to health dignity and community wellbeing.
As Seattle’s Host Tribe Muckleshoot continues to step forward in caring for people beyond their own community. The $50,000 donation reflects both a long standing partnership and an ongoing commitment to taking care of people today and for future generations.
