Shop 4% Friday on December 17th to Support Anacortes Family Center
On the 4th Friday of every month, you shop and, together, we give! This year Skagit Valley Food Co-op has partnered with Skagit Community Foundation to make 4% Friday twice as nice with Double Donation Days! Skagit Community Foundation will be matching all of our 4% Friday giving for 2021.
Now, when you shop 4% Friday Community Shopping Days, your purchase will have twice the impact: on Friday, December 17th, we’re donating 4% of sales to Anacortes Family Center, and the Skagit Community Foundation will match our total to double the donation!
The mission of the Anacortes Family Center is to serve homeless women, children, and families in crisis by providing shelter in addition to comprehensive transformational services to achieve long-lasting personal success and self-sufficiency.
How will your shopping trip help Anacortes Family Center?
4% Friday Funds will be used to support Anacortes Family Center’s life-saving and life-changing program. This includes case management up to 3 times per week to help families secure jobs, housing, and process & heal from unique trauma in 60-90 days. Their program holds an 86% success rate at getting families out of homelessness. This is done by providing weekly life skills classes for adults and children as well as intensive counseling for traumatized children with our contracted children’s therapist.
