Adventures of a Homeless Shelter Chef
Sweet Times at Operation Nightwatch
Circumstances beyond my control have dictated that I am no longer working for Seattle nonprofit Operation Nightwatch. Helping to serve 150 meals every night to people in unstable situations was an honor.
I kept a diary while at Nightwatch, which I will probably never do anything with - the job is not as glamorous or exciting as it sounds. I also posted numerous stories about my adventures there to this website, which you can see on this page.
I encourage you to keep mutual aid, whether it be microdonations or large gifts, in the back of your mind. At this point in history that support is needed more than ever.
Washington’s food banks are on the brink
Some have already pulled back on what they’re offering, as federal cuts and heightened demand drive deep worries about what comes next.

You can a send cash gifts and Amazon items to Operation Nightwatch by going to their website. They are also always looking for volunteers.
