Federal Way
DAY
Center
COALITION
Donations can also be sent to P.O. Box listed below
Federal Way community organizations have come together in an effort to develop a Day Center for the homeless and those living below the poverty line.
We have provided:
Showers
Laundry facilities
PO Boxes
Phone access
Computer and email access
Kitchen and daily food warming
Counseling
Case Management
The Center opened December 5, 2016.
​
As of year end 2016 the project has garnered $102,815.50 from the community. The goal for 2017 is $50,000 additional.
"Right now, Federal Way only has one place the
homeless can go to one day a week to shower.
The Day Shelter would mean we could shower
every day."

-
Lysol Toilet Bowl Cleaner

Socks-mens and womens

Women's underwear-sizes 5,6,7 and 8
-
Men's underwear-all sizes (we currently do not have any men's underwear)

Hygiene products-shampoo, conditioner, toothpaste-(small), toothbrush, bar soap, brushes, combs, shavers (No lotion needed)

Let your friends and family who are traveling to save the hotel sizes for the Day Center!
There is also a surplus of milk that needs to be used before it expires. A donation of dry cereal and instant pudding would help use that up.
