Children thrive when given opportunities to learn, explore, and create in supportive, nurturing environments.
We partner with Strive Northwest (formerly Innovative Services Northwest) to support children receiving pediatric therapies and early learning opportunities. Many of these children face unique challenges, including developmental delays, homelessness, or time spent in foster care, and some are receiving services through the State of Washington.
Beyond providing therapy scholarships, gardening supplies, take-home craft kits, books to build literacy skills, and school backpacks, our members love getting involved in hands-on ways, including:
- Starting a gardening program where kids discover how to plant, care for, and prepare food from the gardens they’ve grown.
- Hosting our annual Fall Festival, a joyful day filled with games, crafts, and movement activities.
- Creating seasonal craft projects that spark imagination and creativity.
Together, these projects nurture not just learning, but confidence, connection, and fun.
“We are grateful for your support of Strive Northwest, which helps us continue to deliver high quality programs and services to hundreds of vulnerable children, adults, and families each week. Our partnership with caring organizations like yours is more critical than ever in meeting the needs of those we serve in our community, and we could not
provide these services without wonderful people like those in the Assistance League! Thank you for making a difference in so many lives and in our community.”

In the past year, we provided $30,000 in funding to support needed pediatric therapy for those unable to afford it.
