Wow!
Right up until our doors closed for Christmas vacation, the generous people of North Kitsap continued to come in with a donation to the North Kitsap Bellringer Fund.
We have far surpassed this years goal of $25,000we are now at $27,000 and checks continue to arrive.
The Bellringer Fund helped to pay for more than 300 Christmas dinners for families in North Kitsap, as well as toys for needy youngsters.Donations to the Bellringer Fund will also be used throughout the year to assist families with expenses such as utility bills, clothing, medical expenses, school supplies, rent and transportation costs.
If you havent yet made a donation to the North Kitsap Bellringer fund, plan to stop by our office or Kitsap Bank and drop it off personally. Contributions will be gratefully accepted until Jan. 2, 2002.
