Mission Statement
Our mission is to alleviate the effects of poverty, hunger, homelessnes, and addiction by providing community-based social services to those in need. Immanuel Community Services operates four programs to serve people who are hungry, homeless, or recovering from addiction to drugs and/or alcohol.
About This Cause
Our Recovery Program offers food and shelter in a supportive environment to men whose addictions to drugs and/or alcohol has resulted in homelessness and hopelessness. In partnership with the Matt Talbot Center, where most of the men attend daytime treatment programs, we provide the only clean and sober shelter in Seattle. We offer the men an opportunity enjoy healthy food, hot showers, laundry facilities and a safe warm place to sleep at night. The men may stay with us, for free, for up to a year while they work on their individual treatment plans. At the conclusion of this intensive program, the men move into permanent housing and become involved with their community. Our Food Bank is open every Monday from 11am to 1pm. With no requirements or restrictions, an average of 125 individuals are served by a dedicated team of volunteers. Our Food Bank also provides food for the men in our Recovery Program, guests in our Hygiene Center, and for our monthly Community Meal which is served to approximately 150 people the last Sunday of each month. Each year, our Food Bank distributes over 315,000lbs of food to those in need. Our Hygiene Center, which is open weekdays from 8am to 2pm, provides hot showers, laundry services, hot meals, respite from the elements, and other supportive services to men and women who are experiencing homelessness and need a place to take care of their personal hygiene. We offer hygiene supplies such as soap, shampoo, and towels.
