South Kitsap Chamber of Commerce Community

The South Kitsap Chamber was honored to present the Port Orchard Police Department with a check for $3,780 to support their partnership with BlueBridge Alliance. This donation was made possible through the auction and raffle proceeds from our inaugural Roast & Toast fundraiser, and it would not have been possible without the generosity and support of everyone who attended.

BlueBridge Alliance is an incredible organization that equips on-duty officers with prepaid debit cards, allowing them to provide immediate assistance to community members experiencing times of need.

We are so grateful to have played a small part in supporting a partnership that creates a meaningful impact right here in our community.

A huge thank you to everyone who attended, supported, donated, bid on auction items, purchased raffle tickets, and shared all the laughs with us throughout the evening. Your generosity made this possible, and together we're helping strengthen the connection between law enforcement and the people they serve.

This is what community is all about. 💙

Who knew fire stations and networking made such a great combination?

A huge thank you to South Kitsap Fire and Rescue - Official Site for hosting the most unique Chamber Luncheon of the year!

We loved having the opportunity to learn more about the important work your team does every day to keep our community safe. Hearing firsthand about the training, dedication, and teamwork behind your operations gave everyone a deeper appreciation for the service and commitment that help protect our residents, businesses, and visitors.

Thank you as well to all of our members and guests who joined us today! It was wonderful to see so many familiar faces, make new connections, and spend time together as a community.

And a special shoutout to Bob Failing for joining the Chamber while attending the Luncheon! That’s exactly the kind of community spirit we love to see.

We're already looking forward to seeing everyone at our next Chamber Luncheon in September!

We couldn't let the Roast & Toast pass without recognizing and thanking Karin Harris.

Not only is Karrin a board member, a Platinum Sponsor through Avamere Rehabilitation at Ridgemont , and The Villas at Ridgemont, but she is also one of the true pillars of our Chamber community. Behind the scenes, at every event and every luncheon, Karrin pours her heart into helping make our events special.

The beautiful centerpieces featured at the South Kitsap Roast & Toast were all lovingly handmade by Karrin. She is always willing to lend a hand, offer support, and contribute wherever needed-never asking for recognition, but always deserving it.

Karrin, thank you for your generosity, dedication, creativity, and unwavering commitment to our Chamber and community. Your hard work does not go unnoticed, and we are incredibly grateful for everything you do.

We truly couldn't do it without you!
