HOST A DONATION DRIVE 

JOIN THE UCEF BOARD

There are several vacancies on its board of directors. We need members who can help to visualize UCEF’s future. The board meets every other month from 3 to 4:30 p.m.

UCEF is in need of regular volunteers to work one-on-one with clients in the office. The available shifts are Tuesday, Thursday or Friday  from 10:30 to 12:15. Volunteers typically work two shifts a month.  

For more information: call 206-524-7885.

​Would you like to help UCEF but don't have the daytime availability to volunteer on a regular basis? Consider hosting a donation drive. 

You can host a drive one time or on a recurring basis. They're a great activity to do at the office, school, with sports teams, or wherever you're spending time with a generous group of folks in your life.
