Shoreline, WALocal News

Families of Multiples Seattle continues its longstanding partnership with KidVantage Shoreline, donating unsold items from their consignment sales to aid local families. KidVantage collects essential goods, including clothing and toys, for children experiencing economic insecurity and systemic inequities. The organization operates hubs in Shoreline, Bremerton, and Issaquah, serving as vital resources for families in need. During October 2025, KidVantage will temporarily halt donations at its hubs, while the NE Seattle and Shoreline Tool Library will still accept items to support their efforts. This collaboration underscores the importance of community involvement in addressing local challenges.

KidVantage aims to alleviate stress for families facing disruption and hardship. The organization will resume accepting donations on November 1, 2025, allowing community members to contribute once again. Such initiatives reflect the ongoing commitment to support vulnerable populations in the area.
