“We would like to recognize our amazing sponsors @Seahawks for their help and support during this crisis. The Seahawks continue to be a strong leader and motivator in our community and we appreciate all of their help fighting hunger and homelessness. Thanks to the many generous donors to the Community Relief Fund: COVID-19, people are receiving rental assistance and help with food.”
