COVID-19 Updates

While our communities have been battling COVID-19 and all of the effects that have come along with it, we have been able to rapidly respond. Here are some things that we’ve been up to:

We held a snack drive to benefit the staff at Good Samaritan Hospital, Tacoma General Hospital, Virginia Mason Memorial Hospital and Astria Toppenish Hospital. We took pre-packaged snacks, energy drinks and hand-written cards and the staff was blown away by the generosity in our community.

                                           

At retirement communities, assisted living facilities and nursing homes, the residents have to stay in their rooms in order to continue to adhere to social distancing and to stay safe. We collected snacks, bought food, and took hand-written cards to our neighbors who can’t leave their rooms or have visitors; just so that they know they’re loved and not forgotten!

We have a team of drivers at all locations that are making deliveries to people who are unable to go out into the community. We’ve been able to purchase groceries, toilet paper, and hand sanitizer. Deliveries have been made with all of those items, as well as deliveries of necessary prescriptions.

Olive Crest is one of our partners who works with children in Foster Care and their families. At our Bellevue location we were able to adopt 25 families and provide Easter baskets to all of them. The kids will be able to enjoy things like board games, activity kits, sports gear, crafts, snacks and more.

Thank you to all of you who have participated in one or more of these opportunities to love our city and to Move Life Forward! Your giving matters.
