If you’ve stopped into Forests, Tides & Treasures or made an online order recently, you may have noticed that we’ve started offering a round-up donation to the Seward Community Foundation (SCF), a local organization supporting the communities of Seward and Moose Pass. We want to share with you more about SCF and the organizations that they help. Their work really shows that we are always better together!
SCF created an endowment that “allows grants to be made that improve the lives of Seward and Moose Pass residents in areas such as health, education, human services, arts and culture, youth, and community development. SCF connects people who care to the causes that make a difference and matter most to them.”
When you choose to round up your balance in support of SCF, you help support these initiatives and the volunteers spearheading their local organizations. One of the organizations near and dear to our hearts is the Seward Prevention Coalition (SPC). As a non-profit organization, SPC offers empowering programs for kids and adults, many of which are free or scaled for the community.
The programs offered by SPC include:
Sources of Strength, “A ground-breaking school program that helps kids in Seward learn critical mental health skills, so they can build resilience, release trauma, and feel emotionally empowered for life!”
Youth 360, “Youth 360 offers life-giving programs that inspire kids and help families bond in healthy, fun ways.”
Seward Strong, “This program offers pro-active education about how to raise kids in a way that supports their highest wellbeing, and offers inspiring solutions to help prevent + heal trauma.”
Bloom, “Bloom brings T.L.C door-to-door for new parents, and offers joyful education, goodies, and resources to help support babies ages 0 - 5 years old.”
Safe Harbor, “An advocacy center that gives people experiencing personal violence and abuse the plans, resources, and protections they need to heal and create lives of safety and security.”
Wellness for All, “Wellness For All brings meditation, yoga and other forms of holistic healing to kids and adults alike!”
Your generous round-up contributions allow us to support the Seward Community Foundation and organizations like the Seward Prevention Coalition. We thank you from the bottom of our hearts!
We are always better together!
