Thrive International — Seattle.
Thrive is currently helping with emergency housing for asylum-seekers in Seattle.
Here is the summary of what’s going on in Seattle.
In December, King County contracted with Thrive to provide temporary shelter for 350+ immigrants who were living in tents.
With King County, Thrive has been moving asylum-seekers staying in the tents at a local church to rooms in a local hotel since the third week of December.
"I am so happy and thankful right now because Thrive is my family now."
King County allocates $3 million to fund 100 hotel rooms for asylum-seekers
Alexandra Yoon-Hendricks | The Seattle Times
“King County hired Thrive International, a Spokane-based nonprofit that provides transitional housing to refugee and immigrant communities, to help move people from the church to hotel rooms.”
