A 501c3 nonprofit agency dedicated to providing a nutritious meal service and a safe and supportive environment for women and children. Founded in 1988, WCFR is an independent agency located in one of the poorest legislative districts of Washington State.

Some community members help by raising money for the Restaurant or conducting a food drive on the Restaurant's behalf.

Would you like to organize a food/money drive? Food is expensive, and so are supplies! The following is a list of items the Restaurant can always use:
