Vision House follows a mission to work with marginalized families who are experiencing homelessness – the hidden homeless in our community. With the Lowe’s Hometowns grant, our organization will be able to repair stairs and decking, remodel of an apartment kitchen as well as install carpeting and receive a fresh coat of paint. These renovations and repairs will expand our capacity to serve families experiencing homelessness, providing them with a safe and secure environment in which to rebuild their lives.

The Clark County Veterans Garden is a criminal justice community service site with a large garden which is used to grow fresh food for the food banks in our area.

This updated theater will support not only cinema but live music and shows, as well as community events and gatherings, business meetings, and family and community reunions.

The Phinney Neighborhood Association has a project covering two sites. They would like to build a deck outside the Greenwood Senior Center with tables, chairs, and umbrellas that would also provide a space for meetings, classes and support groups. The Phinney Center itself has no outdoor space, so the project would also transform its lower lot with tables, chairs and umbrellas, as well as create sitting spaces at various points throughout the property.

The South Kitsap Western Little League has projects that include baseball field maintenance, stair repair, bleacher seating repairs, groundscaping and ADA accommodations.
