Be a Leader for Food Justice to make immediate and lasting change
Food Lifeline board members serve as bold advocates for equitable access to food as a human right. Board members guide the strategic vision for Food Lifeline in support of our community, striving towards dismantling the root causes of poverty and hunger to help shape a more just and thriving food system for Western Washington.
We especially welcome leaders with experience in food systems, equity, finance, legal, advocacy, fundraising, social services, or grassroots organizing. People with lived experience of food insecurity are strongly encouraged to apply.
