At our recent community event, where we had the pleasure of hosting approximately 300 attendees from diverse cultures, languages, and backgrounds, two exceptional KCDC Policy Council members truly stood out.
When asked what was their favorite part of the event, they openly shared:
“Seeing the smiles on people’s faces, especially the children. They received all kinds of goodies. The icing on the cake was the Seahawks Mascot playing with the children!” -Makiatu
“Children’s toys, food items, and many other materials were distributed! – ” Nidal
This event would not have been possible without the incredible support of Northwest Harvest and our wonderful community partners. To the amazing team at Northwest Harvest: Sol, Senight, Jeanie, Alex, and Rumi, we’d like to extend our heartfelt appreciation!
The cherry on top was the support of the Seattle Seahawks who brought extra cheer and joy to the event!
Thank you, Nidal and Makiatu, for your outstanding efforts, and thank YOU, our incredible community, for your unwavering support. Together, we’re building a brighter future for all in Kent, Washington!
Through the KCDC Policy Council, more people of color, low-income, immigrant and refugee residents will have access to positions of leadership within various city councils and decision-making committees. Policy Council members support civic engagement amongst community members in Kent while also creating spaces for diverse groups to interact, learn from, and work with each other.
