Get ready to toss some love our way because Mardi Bras is back and it’s bringing the sparkle, sass, and serious impact we all love! This joyful drive supports women in our community with brand new bras and essentials, and every donation helps restore comfort, confidence, and dignity. Think beads with a purpose and kindness with great timing.
You can drop donations at any BECU location, all YMCA locations, Boots Bakery, VOA HQ on Haven St, or turn it into a celebration of generosity by hosting your own Mardi Bras party. We’ve included a handy one sheeter packed with fun, easy party ideas to get you started. And for those who prefer a drive by good deed, we’ve got you covered. Friday, February 20 from 4 to 6 pm, swing by Women’s Hearth, 920 W 2nd Ave, where one of our amazing volunteers will be there to greet you and collect donations without you ever leaving your car.
If you would like us to come and speak at your party or would like additional information, click the link below! Easy, festive, and deeply meaningful. Let the good times and the giving roll! 💜💛💚 |

| Because of you, Vets on Lacey is no longer a construction site. It’s home.
Your generosity helped transform four walls into a place of stability, dignity, and rest for veterans who have given so much in service to our country. From the finishing touches that made the units warm and welcoming, to the details that turn a key into a fresh start, your support made move-in day possible!
The photo from our open house captures a moment of celebration, but what it really represents is something quieter and more powerful: veterans opening the door to a safe place to land, heal, and begin their next chapter. Thank you for standing with them and for making this vision real! |

Your generosity made it possible for Elena to have somewhere to go when the hospital doors opened and the question felt impossible.
At forty-eight, she arrived by ambulance, struggling to breathe. Pneumonia. Dehydration. When she was stable enough to leave, the usual options were gone. Shelters were full. Winter made the streets dangerous. Without Hope House Respite Center, there would have been nowhere safe for her to heal.
Thanks to your support, Elena was welcomed by name. There was a bed with clean sheets, a quiet room, and the dignity of being seen. Through your commitment, her days included medication on time, nourishing meals, a soothing cup of hot morning coffee, and care that never rushed her or asked her to solve everything at once. Rest was treated as part of healing, not a luxury.
Your care created space for recovery without fear. It allowed healing to come before survival. And it gave Elena something she had not felt in a long time: peace. Thank you for making stories like hers possible and for standing with women when they need it most. |

| Because of you, Crosswalk has a library with brand new books!
Thanks to the incredible generosity of caring donors, our teens now have a fully stocked library filled with books to escape into and games to gather around. You didn’t just donate items. You created moments of curiosity, laughter, connection, and quiet comfort for young people who don’t always have access to those things.
This library will be a refuge on hard days, a spark on curious ones, and a reminder to our teens that they are seen, valued, and deeply cared for. Thank you for filling these shelves and this space with so much heart. ♥️ |
