Solid Ground WA

“This is somewhere where for the first time, I felt safe. Somewhere where no one was going to hurt me, and I wasn’t going to have to fight.”  

-Talia*, former Broadview resident 

When Talia arrived at Solid Ground’s Broadview Shelter & Transitional Housing, her life changed forever. For the first time, she felt truly safe, genuinely supported, and hope blossomed for a future free from violence – for herself and her children. 

But healing doesn’t happen alone. It takes a compassionate community stepping forward to support survivors on their journey toward a brighter tomorrow. 

You can show up for survivors like Talia TODAY during GiveBIG – Washington’s largest online fundraiser! Your gift directly helps families rebuild their lives, reclaim independence, and heal from trauma. And right now, generous matching donors will be DOUBLED. 

Imagine the impact your gift can make to ensure the more than 300 survivors and families we serve each year receive safe shelter, trauma-informed support, personalized case management, dedicated children’s programming, support groups, housing assistance, and so much more. 

Today, Talia’s life is filled with stability and possibility. Her children are thriving, she’s in a loving, respectful relationship, and soon she’ll welcome a daughter into a home defined by trust, safety, and love.

Join us in nurturing hope, transforming lives, and breaking the cycle of violence—one family at a time.
