Why get involved?
When you make a gift—money, time, or energy—to The Salvation Army Seattle White Center, your gift becomes grounded in the reputation, trust and credibility of The Salvation Army—which is well known for its continuing efforts of providing relief to those in need.
The programs below currently need the most support to ensure their success. Any gift will make an impact in our community.
Seattle White Center Community Center Scholarships
Every life deserves to shine. No one in need is turned away from the life-changing opportunities at The Seattle White Center Community Center through our Scholarship Program. The Seattle White Center is a safe haven for these children in one of Seattle’s poorest neighborhoods, and many of our families earn below the state of California's poverty line. 100% of the funds raised assists in providing our youth with spiritual, educational and athletic programs for those who need it most.

We have the perfect volunteer opportunity to meet your interests.
Volunteering is one of the most enjoyable things you'll ever do. Not to mention, one of the most fulfilling. Community Center volunteers are held to the same standards as our employees including application, background check, Child Safe training, and orientation.
