We were recently sent photos from the Pillars of Strength and Crystal Apple Awards by the Cowlitz County Chamber of Commerce, and looking through them was such a wonderful reminder of how lucky we are to be surrounded by a community that supports us, believes in our mission, and recognizes the work we do every day.

We truly cannot say thank you enough. For every donation, every partnership, every volunteer hour, every encouraging word, and every person who stands beside us while we support survivors and individuals facing difficult times.

Your support makes this work possible, and we are incredibly grateful to be part of such a compassionate community. Thank you for everything.

We have been asked many times about how community members can support our agency, so we wanted to make it easy to find our wish lists and donation platform all in one place.

Your donations help us provide safety, comfort, and essential items to individuals and families facing some of the hardest moments of their lives. Every item donated makes a direct impact on the people we serve.

You can find our wish lists here:

Our shelter is currently in urgent need of a few everyday essentials, and we would be so grateful for any support from our community. 💜

As we continue housing and supporting individuals and families facing incredibly difficult times, these items are used daily and help us provide care at no cost to those we serve.

Items we currently need:
🧻 Toilet paper
🧼 Paper towels
🧽 Cleaners (surface cleaners, sanitizing wipes, bathroom cleaners, laundry detergent, etc.)
🌿 Air fresheners
🐱 Cat litter

Every donation, no matter how small, makes a direct impact and helps us continue providing a safe and supportive environment for those who need it most.

The support of our community means the world to us. Thank you for always showing up for our shelter and the people we serve.

Hops for Hope was a success, and we are feeling so grateful for the amazing support from our community. Thank you to every single person who attended, donated, volunteered, shared our event, and helped make the night so meaningful.

A very special thank you goes out to the many local businesses and community members who generously donated raffle baskets, silent auction items, gift cards, experiences, and prizes. Your generosity helped make this event possible and directly supports the important work we do every day.

Our local businesses truly are the heart of this community. We encourage everyone to support the businesses that continue to show up for organizations like ours and for the people we serve.

Thank you for believing in our mission, standing beside us, and helping bring hope to so many. We could not do this work without all of you.

Today, our team at Emergency Support Shelter is wearing denim in solidarity with survivors near and far. 💙

Denim Day is a powerful reminder that there is never an excuse for sexual violence and that we stand with those who have experienced it. By wearing denim, we honor survivors, challenge harmful myths, and show our commitment to a community rooted in respect, safety, and support.

To every survivor: we see you, we believe you, and you are not alone.
