Where there's rain, there's a rainbow! That was definitely a theme for 2021. Although our communities faced many challenges, together we created solutions thanks to YOUR compassion and generosity. This annual report reflects our fiscal year 2021 (July 1, 2020 - June 30, 2021), when the pandemic hit its peak impact on our region. With your gifts of time, talent, and treasure, we responded in many ways to help our nonprofits continue their missions and keep our communities safe. ![]()
We're so grateful for your support, for the generous heart that you have for North Central Washington, and for giving back to ensure this place continues to thrive today and for generations to come.![]()

We are so incredibly proud of our amazing leader, Beth Stipe, for receiving the Spirit of Ernst and Susan Wagner Award at the Apple Blossom Service Club Luncheon today. Wenatchee Mayor Frank Kuntz presented the award, which is given to a person, business, or nonprofit that has given back to the community to make it a better place. "She sees a gap, she fills it. When she sees a need, she finds a way to help." That is so true of Beth and her abilities to connect people together to create solutions. We are honored and grateful to work for her, alongside her, and celebrate her as the recipient of this most deserved award! Thank you Apple Blossom Festival for recognizing the good will of those who make our community a better place!
