OUR VOICE IS A GARDEN
The IF Project’s Annual Fundraiser & Storytelling Showcase
Saturday, October 24, 2026 | 11:00 AM–1:00 PM
Washington Hall | 153 14th Ave, Seattle, WA 98122
Every story is a seed. Every voice deserves to be heard. Every person has the power to grow, bloom, and create change.
The IF Project invites you to join us for Our Voice Is a Garden, an afternoon of storytelling, connection, healing, and community.
This gathering is more than a fundraiser. It is an opportunity to center the voices and experiences of people impacted by incarceration and to celebrate what becomes possible when people are given the space, support, and opportunity to heal, grow, and thrive.
At The IF Project, we believe that our stories matter. We believe our healing matters. And we believe that when people reclaim their voices, they can transform not only their own lives, but their families and communities.
Guests will come together over a buffet brunch for a powerful and uplifting experience featuring personal stories from members of our community, reflections on The IF Project’s work and impact, and opportunities to invest in the continued healing and empowerment of justice-impacted women and communities.
You will hear stories of resilience, transformation, possibility, and hope—not simply stories about where someone has been, but stories about where they are going.
Powerful stories. Beautiful community. Real impact. One unforgettable experience.
We would love to have you in the room with us on October 24.

You do not have to be in the room to be part of what we are building.
Your gift supports The IF Project’s work alongside justice-impacted women and communities through healing-centered programming, reentry support, peer mentorship, behavioral health and wellness initiatives, workforce and digital readiness, and opportunities that help people move toward greater stability and self-determination.
Every contribution helps us continue creating spaces where people are seen, heard, supported, and given opportunities to thrive.
MAKE A DONATION TO THE IF PROJECT
A garden does not bloom all at once. It requires care, nourishment, patience, and community.
We believe the same is true of people.
For individuals and families impacted by incarceration, healing and reentry are not single moments—they are journeys. When people have access to meaningful relationships, resources, opportunities, and spaces where their lived experiences are valued, something powerful can take root.
Stories become seeds.
Healing creates roots.
Opportunity creates growth.
Community helps us bloom.
That is the heart of Our Voice Is a Garden.
The IF Project is a gender-responsive nonprofit organization that prioritizes the experiences of people impacted by incarceration. Through truth telling, empathy, and awareness, we heal, empower, and transform ourselves, our families, and our communities.
Our work reaches beyond incarceration and reentry. We are building pathways toward healing, stability, belonging, opportunity, and lasting change.
On October 24, we invite you to be part of that work.
Because our stories matter.
Our healing matters.
Our voices matter.
And our voice is a garden.
