“To provide dignity, care and compassion through action with the example that each person can make a difference.
To educate and advocate acceptance and understanding of each other’s differences. 
To ultimately bring about the realization that we are all a vital part of this world
and with extended effort put an end to homelessness, hunger and hatred.”

Our leadership around organizing other meal providers through the Meals Partnership Coalition since 1999 has encouraged proactive involvement. OSL is a founding partner of the Meals Partnership Coalition which functions as a resource for the member meal provider organizations throughout the Seattle area. The Meals Partnership Coalition coordinates critical outreach support for the approximately 120 known meal programs serving in the Seattle area as well as educating community leaders and the broader community, on hunger issues and the critical needs of the health-vulnerable among Seattle residents. In this vital work, OSL chairs the Meals Partnership Coalition and functions as its fiscal sponsor.
