The MG2 Foundation awarded a $250,000 grant to Dr. Janice Kim, and the Fred Hutch Cancer Center on Oct. 23, to advance breast cancer research.

The city of Bellevue announced this week that, in honor of Black History Month in February, it will be exhibiting a public art display featuring the work of 17 Pacific Northwest-based Black artists.
The “Elevating Voices” exhibit was made possible through a partnership from the city, the Seattle architecture and design firm MG2, and the Onyx Fine Arts Collective, plus sponsors Wells Fargo, Cloudvue, and Ezell’s Famous Chicken.
In a tradition that began 15 years ago, Cordell Lui and Jerry Lee, and their group of friends, donated hot Costco roasted chickens to the ACRS food bank in the Seattle Chinatown-International District (CID) for the holiday season.
