The Seattle Seafarers Center's mission is to welcome and care for seafarers who visit Puget Sound through ship visits, transportation, access to healthcare, communication tools, and basic necessities.
Activities or mission (Part I)
The Seattle Seafarers Center's mission is to welcome and care for seafarers who visit Puget Sound through ship visits, transportation, advocacy, communication tools, and basic necessities.
-
Ship visiting and chaplaincy: Chaplains and trained ship visitors meet every cargo ship docked in the port of Seattle plus some in Everett and Tacoma: 637 visits during this fiscal year. Visitors bring wifi and SIM cards on board to welcome seafarers who can't leave the ship. Shopping and delivery services were provided for seafarers who are unable to leave their ship due to visa or shore leave restrictions. The Center looks out for welfare and mental health issues on board and escalates any observed welfare issues to the Coast Guard and the International Transport Workers' Federation. In 2024-2025 the Center's internship program gave young adults from the North American Maritime Ministry Association and Jesuit Volunteer Corps Northwest mentorship and real work experience. The Center operates a hospitality space to offer a place for seafarers to relax, use wifi, and receive clothing and toiletries free of charge.
Expenses $133,069 · Revenue $66,797
-
Ditty Bag Program: The Center provided 2,147 "Ditty Bags" to seafarers on cargo ships. Volunteers sew cloth bags and knit stocking caps. The bags are filled with toiletries, a stocking cap, playing cards, other treats, and a handwritten note. The Center's chaplains and ship visitors distribute the bags to every seafarer entering the port during the holiday season. In-kind donations of clothing allowed the Center to expand the ditty bag program to provide 3,225 sweatshirts and t-shirts in addition to ditty bags this year.
Expenses $40,157
-
Cruise ship transportation services: The Mission Staff and Volunteers provided transportation services to 8,637 cruise ship employees during the 2024 Seattle cruise season (May-October), with service provided to cruise ships in the Port of Seattle. The transportation service is a van service between the cruise ship terminal and downtown Seattle provided by a local resident who can direct seafarers to shopping and tourism destinations in the city.

The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those.
