Gratified by the amazing generosity of islanders

Community Foundation of San Juan Island

The 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:
 
  • Animal Protection Society’s New Shelter Medical Supplies
  • SJICF Women’s Fund Membership Drive
  • Family Resource Center’s Our Island Neighbors 
  • Friday Harbor Athletic Association’s Let’s Finish the Ballfields
  • Hospice of San Juan’s Help Sustain Hospice
  • PADs for Parkinson’s Expanding PADs Training
  • Wolf Hollow Wildlife Rehabilitation Center’s Raptor Habitat & Food Storage
  • Island Stage Left’s Housing for the Stars
  • SJICF’s Voc-Tech Education Scholarships
 
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.
