Our Cause
Lawyer’s Helping Hungry Children is a 501(C)3 organization dedicated to eradicating child hunger in our community and around the world. No child should go hungry, yet more than 17 million children in the US and 150 million children worldwide are under fed. In Washington State alone the number is a staggering 300,000 children. As lawyers, we provide financial aid to feeding organizations and advocate for high risk hungry children. We share our partner’s vision to cut hunger in half in the Pacific Northwest by 2028.
