Tent City 3 has moved to the St. Dunstan’s Episcopal Church campus. If you would like to drop off donations, turn at the Interurban Trail traffic light on 145th and drive down to the church back parking lot. There is always someone there to greet you!

Tent City 3 at St. Dunstan's

Tent City 3 shelters up to 100 regular residents. Our ability to cook is limited (we have a coffeepot and a microwave), and hot meals are always welcome. We have no refrigerator, but we have several large coolers.

To schedule hot meals, contact Bill Bear at Greater Seattle Cares - 206-496-3116
