The 2020 Rairdon Annual Holiday Giving Campaign Raises Over $37,000 for Local Charities in WA State
It’s all part of the Rairdon Culture of Care to give back to those in our community. Each year around the holidays, we’re honored to be able to select one or more charity partners to support through financial donation and/or gifts. In total, the Rairdon Annual Giving Campaign 2020 raised $37,253 for our partner charities Hopelink, Seattle Union Gospel Mission, Salvation Army of Washington, and Seattle Children’s Hospital.
2020 was an especially difficult year for many members of our community here in the Seattle area and around the globe, and we are grateful for our ability to support our 4 chosen charity partners whose missions positively impact our communities. Our chosen charity partners support programs that provide food and housing assistance to families living below the poverty line, wraparound services for those experiencing homelessness, and children’s services.
