Lettuce Help You: Washington Elevator Gives Back at Ronald McDonald House Seattle!

Written By Sarah Waterman

At Washington Elevator, we believe being part of a community means showing up beyond the jobsite. Recently, we had the opportunity to spend an afternoon at the Ronald McDonald House Charities (RMHC) in Seattle, giving back in a small, but meaningful way. Together, we cooked a homemade meal from scratch for over 120 families: BBQ chicken, mac and cheese, Caesar salad (lots of lettuce 😄), and fresh-baked cookies. This effort was led by some of our amazing team members, including Project Manager Donna Provenzo, Customer Advocacy Champion Amellia Parrott, Chief Problem Solver Sean McMannis, and Owner Sarah Waterman.

‍It was a true team effort - one that reflects the same collaboration and care we bring to our customers every day. Opportunities like this remind us that strong partnerships extend beyond business. Giving back is part of who we are, and we’re grateful for organizations like Ronald McDonald House that make such a meaningful impact in our community to families and children in need.

However, her shared values & trust with the Founder, Jason, whom she worked with for nearly 10 years in the trade, plus her authentic desire to bring a breath of fresh air into the industry, compelled her to join Washington Elevator as a Partner in July of 2022. Sarah strives to provide a positive customer experience in order to build a long-term partnership.

When she isn't leading the team, she loves spending time with her two amazing teenagers, crabbing on Whidbey Island, but on a good night, her favorite activity is beating her husband in a game of cribbage!
