CHS Community Post | Jubilee Women’s Center Honored to be Among the “STars”

IMG_1871Jubilee Women’s Center, which provides community housing and support services for single homeless and low-income women, has taken its place among the local nonprofit stars as part of the STars on Broadway project, a joint effort of Sound Transit and the Capitol Hill Chamber of Commerce.

Now in its fifth and final year, the STars on Broadway project “celebrates nonprofits on Capitol Hill that make life brighter for everyone,” according to Sound Transit. Each featured nonprofit is recognized with a 4×4 foot star designed by a local artist and hung on the red construction wall surrounding the future sight of Sound Transit’s Capitol Hill light rail station at the corner of East John and Broadway. A lighting ceremony December 5 marked the debut of the 2014 honorees, along with all of the previous years’ recipients. The stars will remain lit throughout the winter.
