Together we are facing our region’s toughest challenges. But, we have seen the community come together when it is needed most. With your support, we can make our greatest impact by building a unified community of healing and opportunity.

By investing in Impact NW, you are preventing homelessness. You are investing in our culturally responsive, trauma-informed care, where participants learn self-love and resourcefulness, and can move beyond stability to strengthening.

Thank you for supporting Impact NW and thousands of people in our community and for giving them what they most want – a beautiful life.
