It’s not too soon to start thinking about the 2008 Generations Luncheon and Silent Auction.  Kitsap Bank did.  They not only thought about it, but they signed on as the Presenting Sponsor for the 2008 event which will be held at the Kiana Lodge on Sunday, April 13, 2008.

“We are thrilled to receive such generous support from Kitsap Bank.” said Bill Brueggemann, Interim CEO. “The leadership and vision the bank provides in our community by supporting local not-for-profit organizations goes a long way toward enriching the lives of those in need.” 

The Generations Luncheon and Silent Auction is the largest special event fundraiser held by Martha & Mary each spring to help raise much needed resources to support special programming throughout the organization. 

The event is instrumental in leveraging additional funds to help care for the nearly 2,000 children and seniors served each year.  With an average of 40% of all children and 75% of all seniors served qualifying for assistance, Martha & Mary relies on community support to offset the growing amount of uncompensated care offered each year. 

“Martha & Mary has met the physical, emotional, and spiritual needs of Kitsap County families for over one hundred years.  Their dedication to our residents has enriched our community, setting a high standard for care of our young and old” said Helen Langer Smith, Chairman of the Board, Kitsap Bank.  “Like Martha and Mary, Kitsap Bank is very proud to have served this community for nearly a century, and we are pleased to support such a worthy organization in their quest to provide a caring, family environment for our friends, family, and neighbors.”
