CHS Community Post | Share your holiday spirit with a gift to a woman at Jubilee

Picture1For residents at Jubilee Women’s Center who are healing from crisis and trauma, the holidays often stir up pain. Please help us keep the season bright for the women who live in our Capitol Hill residences.

We invite you to share your holiday spirit with a gift to a woman at Jubilee. Your gift makes this challenging holiday season a little more joyful by giving her a treat to open and, even more meaningful, sending a message that others care about her.

You may purchase an item from her wish list, host a drive at work or among friends to collect several items, or choose one of these always-appreciated gifts:

– Grocery gift cards (Safeway, QFC, Trader Joes, PCC, Whole Foods)
– Drug store gift cards (Walgreens, Rite Aid, Bartell)
– Amazon gift cards
– Coffee shop gift cards (Tully’s, Fuel, Cafe Ladro, Victrola, Starbucks)
– Tickets and passes to plays, concerts, movies and sporting events

For more information and wish list details, email Angie at [email protected] or call 206-442-2951. Please bring your gift to Jubilee Women’s Center at 620 18th Avenue East by December 18.

About Jubilee Women’s Center

Since 1983, Jubilee Women’s Center has supported women as they heal and transition out of poverty and homelessness. Jubilee’s three community-living residences, located in Capitol Hill and the University District, provide a safe, affordable and dignified environment for about 60 women each year. Guided by a care manager, each Jubilee resident sets goals for growth and development and works to address the complex issues that caused her homelessness.

Jubilee is also a critical resource for 1,500 non-resident women each year, providing job readiness and financial management classes, technology and life skills training, an open computer lab, customized referral services, and a free clothing boutique to any low-income woman in need.
