One of our favorite events of summer, the Benton-Franklin Fair & Rodeo in Kennewick, and one of the neatest days: Tough Enough to Wear Pink Day. For every person who wore pink that day, the Fair donated $1 towards preventative care and treatment of breast cancer for residents of the community. A great day lending a hand at the Fair!

The new facility at 327 E. Pacific includes offices, a training room, and small business incubator spaces, enabling AHANA to expand their services and better support the community.

Washington Trust was beyond excited to attend Habitat for Humanity Seattle - King County's open house at their Yarrow Cottages property in the South Park neighborhood of Seattle.

While attending, Christin Malek learned more about their impactful homeownership model and how it's transforming lives. This event served to build a stronger connection with community members and others dedicated to supporting affordable housing.

We are proud to support Habitat for Humanity’s mission and to be part of a community making affordable housing a reality.
