Big businesses raise over $3 million in campaign for Seattle shelter
Mary's Place, a Seattle-based shelter, announced that a campaign fueled by area businesses has raised more than $3 million in a campaign to help the unsheltered.
The announcement was made without fanfare and was designed more as a celebration of the achievement.
Amazon, Starbucks, Microsoft, Dick's Drive Ins, and dozens of other businesses contributed to the "No Child Sleeps Outside" campaign.
The fundraising is expected to help 1,500 people, primarily homeless families, find shelter. Amazon has been a big back of Mary's Place, and will soon open a shelter in a brand new tower at 7th Avenue and Blanchard Street in Seattle.
