To all our Holiday Gift Barn Volunteers and Donors -

Thank you so much for your generosity! With your support we were able to support 650 families and get brand new toys, clothing, stocking-stuffers, socks, underwear, scarves, gloves, hats, games and books to 1,300+ children. We appreciate your
generous gifts and time. Together the Issaquah and Sammamish communities created a gracious space for families to shop in a holiday-spirited and dignified environment.  I'm confident there are going to be lot more happy children Christmas morning because of all your goodness.

As the director of the Issaquah Food and Clothing Bank I have the privilege of connecting with each of the families we serve. After 4 years at the IFCB I've had the opportunity to meet our client’s newborn babies and I have seen those children grow
and thrive. I've seen those kiddo's eating carrots pulled fresh from Seattle Tilth's Pickering Barn Garden at our Summer Lunch Program. I've been lucky enough to hold many infants and toddlers while parents shop for groceries. I've also been fortunate to
be a part of a team that has helped many families with children remain housed or go from being homeless to being housed. So please know each of the families you helped this holiday season are going to be filled with joy and love because of you.  I cannot tell you enough that your donation and your time is meaningful! We could NOT do it without you. I hope you continue to participate and commit your time and resources to the Issaquah Food and Clothing Bank. We need your support and
participation year round. If you are interested in learning more about IFCB please email me or call and I will give you a tour of our facility.

Sincerely,
Cori Walters
Executive Director
Issaquah Food and Clothing Bank
