One-stop for community, connection and empowerment

Collaboration with a Cause started in 2020 as a distribution event to serve communities struggling during the pandemic. Since then, it has grown into a large-scale collaborative event that connects people to resources and services to find stability and quality employment. Held quarterly in different communities in Pierce County, no two Collaboration for a Cause events are the same. Each one is catered to the identified needs of that community.

Since 2022, the event has served over 675 individuals and families and made over 2,092 referrals to partners.
