Nist Family Fund Community Sponsorship
Mission Statement: The mission of the Nist Family Fund is to help support and sustain vibrant and healthy communities in the Great Puget Sound region. To accomplish its purpose, the Fund invests in strong community-based organizations that support families in our communities.
The 2019 Christmas Giving and 2020 STB Golf Tournament recipient chosen was Vine Maple Place; an organization whose mission is to assist families in crisis by helping single parents and their children build lives of safety, stability, and greater economic sufficiency.
The 2021 Christmas Giving recipient we chose to support is Step by Step; a nonprofit whose mission is to transform the lives of at-risk pregnant women, so they will deliver healthy babies, embrace positive parenting, and establish safe homes and secure futures. They offer professional in-home counseling and education, with wraparound programs and services that holistically address the unique challenges of at-risk mothers and their families. Since their founding in 1997, they have grown to help over 1,200 women each year.
