A huge shoutout to Team Kitsap Bank!

Yesterday afternoon, 20 of their incredible team members rolled up their sleeves and spent their Volunteer Day of Service with us, sorting, organizing, and packing school supplies into backpacks for the kids in our HopeSparks programs.

Their energy, heart, and teamwork made a big impact. Thanks to them, dozens of children will start the school year with the tools they need and the confidence that their community is cheering them on.

Kitsap Bank, you didn’t just fill backpacks, you filled hearts. Thank you for being part of the HopeSparks family and for showing up in such a big way!

Community, Creativity, and Compassion in Action

We are so honored to be the focus of this summer’s service learning project by Arts Connect, an arts enrichment and life skills program of Hilltop Artist (). Each quarter, participants choose a way to give back, and this summer, they chose HopesCloset. 💙

In June, these incredible young artists collected and donated much-needed items for the families we serve. Their words say it best:

🖌️ “We chose to support HopesCloset because helping people is a team effort—and we wanted to be part of that.”

🖌️ “The donation drive is important to me since our community has a lot of people in need. I’m grateful to be a part of this program.”

🖌️ “It encourages confidence and gives those who need it the resources to better their lives.”

🖌️ “Families struggle with taking care of children and themselves... Supporting this cause helps this issue.”

Thank you, Arts Connect, for your kindness, creativity, and commitment to community. We’re so grateful for your partnership and proud to be part of the journey with you! 💛
