Executive Director Andrew Lofton and SHA awarded Seattle Sounders FC Golden Scarf

Andrew Lofton and Seattle Housing Authority were presented with the Golden Scarf award at the July 29 Seattle Sounders FC match. The award honors the partnership and community-centered efforts between SHA and the RAVE Foundation to bring services to the Yesler Community that are focused on soccer, art, and community-building. A few times each season, Sounders FC selects members of the community to honor their service. They are presented with a special gold scarf, which has come to symbolize the game of soccer. Awardees raise the scarf over their heads, signaling to the fans to do the same.
