Facet & Form, a piercing and tattoo studio on Capitol Hill, is planning a monthlong food drive in December and is looking for the best local partners and donation priorities before it locks in the details.

The shop says it can collect and deliver donations, spread the word through its own channels, offer small thank-yous for donors and potentially team up with other Capitol Hill businesses.

Potential partners include established food banks and smaller mutual-aid efforts in and around the neighborhood. Byrd Barr Place's Market Food Bank, Seattle's LGBTQ+ Center Mutual Aid Closet and Pantry, Community Lunch at Republican and Broadway, the community fridge near Volunteer Park and small free-pantry setups around Capitol Hill are all possible places to support.

Potential donation priorities include nonperishable food, hygiene supplies and easy "to-go" food that does not require cooking. Coats may also be needed, alongside feminine-care items for women's shelters.

Before opening the drive to whatever donations arrive, the shop needs to identify a partner and establish what that organization currently needs. With those details settled, the shop's visible storefront on the Hill could serve as a neighborhood drop-off point throughout December.
