No One Should Face Crisis Alone.

You Can Be the Reason Someone Feels Seen, Safe, and Supported.

Mission

Assistance League of the Eastside serves the immediate, unmet needs of children and adults challenged by hardship or violence, strengthening our community while fostering dignity, confidence, and hope.

Description

Why We Need You

Imagine…

🔹 Leaving the hospital after an assault in only a paper gown because your clothes were taken for evidence.

🔹 Escaping an abusive home with your children with nothing but what you're wearing.

🔹 Being a student wearing ill-fitting hand-me-downs and dreading being noticed and missing needed school supplies.

🔹 Arriving at a shelter after living unhoused, carrying all you own in one bag.

Now imagine someone stepping in — because of YOU.

Last year, because of generous donors like you, we supported nearly 10,000 people in these very situations.

We delivered:

• New clothing and hygiene kits to 50+ hospitals across Washington for survivors of assault.

• Essential household supplies for individuals and families living in shelters or temporary housing.

• New, well-fitting school clothes for over 2,000 children who’ve never had the chance to choose something just for them.

• Flexible support that helps families with food, medicine, or books/school supplies needs — because sometimes clothes aren’t the most critical need.

Your gift makes this possible. 

✨ You restore dignity.

✨ You ease trauma.

✨ You help families feel hope again.

We are proud to be a 100% volunteer-powered organization. That means more of your gift goes directly to those who need it most.

Please give today.

Help us reach even more people this year. 
Your compassion changes lives — and we couldn’t do this without you.

Thank you for being the heart of our mission!
