Cliff Avril Partners With Safeway To Give Back To Seattle Families In Need
The COVID-19 pandemic has hit everyone hard. Many have lost loved ones, lost jobs and lost their overall quality of life. In an effort to navigate through these times, Seahawks Legend Cliff Avril partnered with Safeway and the Odessa Brown Children's Clinic (OBCC) to make a difference.
OBCC first opened in 1970 with the goal of bringing quality healthcare with dignity to children in Seattle's Central District. Fifty years later, OBCC continues to serve medically underserviced Black and Brown families throughout the Puget Sound region. It has since grown into a comprehensive facility with medical, dental and mental health assistance, as well as offering nutrition services for patients and families.
"I love everything about Odessa Brown," Avril said. "During COVID, they've done a wide range of things, and that's another reason why I think it was important for us to partner up. They're not just a normal clinic, they do a wide range of things for their families, like during COVID – emergency relief, rent relief, food, supplies, appliances and utility support for a lot of families."
