Helping our neighbors at Helpline House

We had the pleasure of delivering 650 pounds of canned sockeye salmon to Helpline House, on Bainbridge Island, WA today. Helpline House is a nonprofit that offers an array of much needed services for our neighbors on Bainbridge, our hometown, including a food bank, social services, a counseling program, and a medical equipment loan program. The salmon was generously donated by North Pacific Seafoods.

Matt Eldridge, Interim Executive Director at Helpline House said, "we're especially grateful for support from SeaShare because today it's more important than ever to provide healthy food choices for individuals and families in need. A good source of protein, wild salmon is high in antioxidants, rich in omega-3 fatty acids, low in saturated fat and free of detectable mercury. What's more, canned Alaska sockeye salmon has a long shelf life, which is especially useful for households in transition. SeaShare's contributions to Helpline House make a vital and lasting difference in the Bainbridge Island community."
