Mission: Operation Nightwatch reduces the impact of poverty and homelessness, in keeping with Jesus' teaching to love our neighbors. There are not enough shelters in Seattle. Many nights each month, Nightwatch must turn people away after filling up all the area shelters. Responding to this need, Nightwatch funds overnight shelter for 100 men and 40 women on the floors of other daytime programs and a downtown church. When all the shelters are filled to capacity, clients are offered a blanket, a Metro bus ticket and a prayer. (Less)

Operation Nightwatch is a 501(c)(3) organization, with an IRS ruling year of 2006, and donations are tax-deductible.
