Gratified by the amazing generosity of islandersCommunity Foundation of San Juan IslandThe Foundation, in turn, will match those donations 50 cents on every dollar raised until each project goal is met, thereby allowing over $46,000 to be granted to the following projects:
At the conclusion of the 2017 San Juan County Fair, eleven-year-old, Moose Kinsey from Orcas Island, reached into the glass jar that held names of all 120 contributors at the Community Foundation’s booth – and drew out the name of Travis Ayers. That gave Travis the opportunity to select the nonprofit beneficiary of a bonus $1,000 from the Foundation. He chose the Friday Harbor Athletic Association’s Let’s Finish the Ballfields Project to be the lucky recipient. The Community Foundation extends its deepest gratitude to all who made this annual event so enjoyable – and so successful. | |
