As the season of giving gets underway, Downtown Tacoma businesses are stepping up in a big way to support our neighbors in need. From food drives to fundraisers, local shops and restaurants are showing what it truly means to care for the community, and to make sure everyone has a meal on their table.
Tacoma Businesses Organize Virtual Food Drive
A group of local businesses including Cocobolo, Cygni Tattoo, Elu Yoga, Shop Conmigo, Studio C, Union Salon, Wooden City, and more have joined forces as Tacoma Businesses Team Feed in an effort to end hunger through the Feeding America network of food banks.
Together, they’re rallying the community around a simple but powerful message: everyone deserves to be fed and cared for.
These businesses are inviting the community to donate and help reach their goal of providing much-needed meals to local families. Whether you give a dollar or share the message, your support helps bring nourishment and hope to those who need it most.
Noble Studio Launches Holiday Food Drive
Noble Studio is also giving back this holiday season by hosting a food drive from November 1 through December 31 to support local families who are struggling to put food on the table.
How you can help: Bring in non-perishable food items throughout November and December during business hours at Noble Studio. Donations such as canned goods, boxed meals, rice, pasta, peanut butter, and other pantry staples are all welcome.
Every donation, big or small, helps feed a family in our community.
“Let’s show Tacoma what community love really looks like,” the studio shared. “Give what you can. Share what you have. Lift each other up.”
