    TAF is a Seattle-based charity that is reinventing K-12 public education for all students and teachers in Washington State, particularly those who identify as people of color and come from traditionally underprivileged regions. The existing public education system was not created with everyone's success in mind, and it simply does not work. To promote learning opportunities and academic accomplishment for underserved kids, we collaborate with public school systems, colleges, community, and corporate partners. Similarly, we provide professional development and a network of support to aspiring teachers and education leaders of color in public schools. Our 360-degree approach to public education provides an opportunity to reverse systematic injustice and make education a place where everyone wins by focusing on equity and using STEM as a tool for social change. Equity is woven into our programs, organization, and style of working, not merely as a foundation of our work. While our programs may change over time to have a better impact, our primary objective of improving public education for students of color remains at the heart of everything we do.

    Built in 1906 as a three-story cedar log hunting lodge, Mineral Lake Lodge sits on 3-1/2 acres along Mineral Lake, with 215 feet of private waterfront on what locals call one of the best trout fishing lakes in Washington State. The lodge's wrap-around veranda frames one of the most complete views of Mount Rainier in the Nisqually River Valley, and a private dock along the shoreline accommodates boats or an evening spent fishing. Listed on the National Register of Historic Places since 1974, the lodge has passed through more than a century of uses — from a wilderness retreat for Seattle's early-1900s elite to a political and business retreat under the West Fork Logging Company — before opening as a bed-and-breakfast in 2004. Eight individually themed guest rooms can be booked separately or reserved together for a full lodge buyout, making the property a basecamp for weddings, family reunions, and retreats near Mount Rainier National Park. The lakeside grounds host outdoor wedding ceremonies with the mountain as a backdrop, followed by receptions in the lodge's Reception Hall, which opens onto a deck overlooking the lake and a two-acre meadow. Evenings often end at the lakeshore campfire ring, where the lodge supplies the wood and the makings for s'mores.

The eight-hour rental includes chiavari chairs, event tables, white or black table linens, and full table settings, with setup, breakdown, and on-site support handled by the venue's team.
