Our friends from Timber Ridge Sawdusters came by the Issaquah Hub and dropped off 112 handmade wooden toy cars and trucks in September. 🚗

The Sawdusters have helped bring the total number of toys constructed and donated to KidVantage since 2012 to an incredible 3,653!

A huge thank you to John and Richard for their donations; their generosity is making a difference for kids in our community! 🧡

We were so grateful to be invited to join our friends with Microsoft at the Meydenbauer Center today for a Give Month volunteering event!✨

Microsoft employees were able to volunteer their time to help support KidVantage, Jubilee Women's Center, Homeward Pet Adoption Center, Dignity For Divas and The Sophia Way.🫂

Nonprofits were able to bring projects for volunteers to complete. KidVantage invited volunteers to create Lego kits, hygiene kits and craft kits that will go out the door to local kids almost immediately.⭐

We are so grateful for Microsoft’s partnership during Give Month and throughout the year! To learn more about how you can help, please visit our website at www.KidVantageNW.org.🧡

You can be the magic a child needs this winter! ✨☃️

When you host a Winter WishGiver collection drive with KidVantage, you’re helping local kids stay warm, cozy, and cared for all season long.

Gather your community – friends, family, coworkers, church groups, neighborhoods, sports teams, etc. – to make a real difference one donation at a time.

Ready to spark some magic? Learn more or sign up to host your drive at https://kidvantagenw.org/winter-wishgiver-collection-drives/. Together, we can help every child thrive! ❄️🧡

The items you and/or your group collects will assist us in meeting the needs of more than 3,000 children in our community every month.

We’re joining our friends at Microsoft as they roll up their sleeves to help local kids through volunteer events all month long! From sorting costumes to sparking smiles, Microsoft employees are making a real difference for families in our community. ✨

Thank you, Microsoft, for championing the KidVantage mission during GIVE month! Swipe to see the magic in action—every costume packed is a moment of joy for a local child. 🖤
