The See Ya Later Foundation is a grass roots, local, non-profit organization that seeks to Inspire Youth and Encourage Families. It is our mission to assist local families with a child in a life-threatening medical crisis. We serve families by assisting with items such as gas cards, groceries, clothing, school supplies, utility bills or other necessary family expenses to assist them in avoiding food insecurity and homelessness.  We also assist families with family bonding experiences such as tickets to local attractions such as zoos, aquariums, museums or sporting events. We provide this support through our Seeds of Hope program and we serve families in the South King and North Pierce County area. 

We also provide college scholarships to local area seniors through our Scott Banke Memorial Scholarship Program. Each year we award up to 8 students with a $2,500 scholarship for continuuing education. 

Our 2024 Events include Trivia Night on Wednesday, April 24th, Golf Tournament on Saturday, July 13th, and the Dinner and Auction on Saturday, October 5th.   Check out our events page or social media for more details!

Mr. Brian Williams Director (253) 332-5144

I am the WA State Director of the See Ya Later Foundation in Auburn, WA. I have been associated with SYL since 2006 and began as a volunteer/board member in 2010.

I have over 25 years of fundraising and event hosting experience, having started my volunteer work with the Detlef Schrempf Foundation in 1998. I volunteered for DSF for 19 years and was an integral part of their auction/event teams for the golf tournament and their auction.

In addition, I served as the President of the Auburn Police Officers Association from 2000-2006, leading the department in creating community-based events and fundraisers to assist underprivileged children and families within the community. While with the police department, I served as a volunteer for Special Olympics Washington and played and assisted with the Law Enforcement Torch Run fundraising.

In 2010, I was recruited to serve on the Board of SYL as we expanded our mission from Yamhill County into Auburn and the King and Pierce County area. We knew that the opportunity was there for us to reach out to families in crisis and assist them through our Seeds of Hope Program.

To date, our Seeds of Hope team has assisted over 150 families and provided 55 college scholarships to local area students.

I have honored to have been recognized by the following organizations;

Community Quarterback Award-Seattle Seahawks

Community Service Award - Daughters of the American Revolution

Community Person of the Year Award – Auburn Reporter

Distinguished Alumni Award – South Puget Sound Leadership Institute

Hometown Hero Award - 100.7 The Wolf
