VT Seva Seattle volunteers spent Sunday at the Hope Factory helping build tiny homes that provide transitional housing for those experiencing homelessness in Seattle.

Branch

Seattle

November 16, 2025 at 12:00:00 AM

Our teamโ€”including both youth and adult volunteersโ€”rolled up their sleeves and jumped into a variety of hands-on tasks: painting, caulking, insulating panels, assembling interiors, prepping materials, and more. It was a meaningful opportunity to learn practical life skills while contributing to a cause that directly impacts our community. Beyond the work itself, we also learned about the purpose of the Tiny Home Villagesโ€”how they offer not only safe, warm shelter but also stability, dignity, and a supportive community to help residents get back on their feet. Hearing our youth share their reflections afterward was truly inspiring; the experience deepened their understanding of homelessness and the power of service. This build was especially meaningful because the VT Seva team raised funds over the summerโ€”through our Unity Cricket Cup and Walkathonโ€”to sponsor tiny homes. It was wonderful for our volunteers to see these contributions turn into real, tangible impact. Hereโ€™s a glimpse of the work the team put inโ€”photos and a quick highlight reel from the day! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uv1cSjW3lh8

Houston

On Saturday, November 1st, VT Seva Houston youth and adult volunteers supported The Arc of Katy, an organization serving individuals with intellectual disabilities. Volunteers helped refresh and reorganize various areas, including cleaning storage spaces and removing weeds to prepare the garden for fall planting. They also enjoyed assisting with the vegetable patches. It was a meaningful and rewarding experience for all. We extend our sincere thanks to The Arc of Katy and to Mr. Walt for his guidance and support throughout the service activity.Instagram link: https://www.instagram.com/p/DRGXkGcEfVE/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link&igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==
