Mission Statement

FareStart transforms lives, disrupts poverty and nourishes communities through food, life skills and job training.

About This Cause

Providing real solutions to poverty, homelessness and hunger. FareStart has been helping people transform their lives through food for nearly 30 years - one person, one job and one community at a time. People in poverty struggle to escape the cycle they are in and often face other compounding barriers to getting and keeping a job. At FareStart, we help people overcome those barriers by teaching them work and life skills they need to succeed in the foodservice industry — and in life. Through our restaurants, cafes, catering and programs that provide meals to social services, shelters and schools in the Seattle area, participants in our programs get practical work experience while giving back to their community. In 2011, FareStart launched a national initiative, Catalyst Kitchens, in order to share our unique model with nonprofit organizations across North America. By investing in people and building community, we transform homelessness, hunger and poverty into human potential.
