 On December 22nd a team of volunteers delivered groceries including turkeys and holiday fixin's to our clients throughout the county while another team delivered some holiday cheer with gifts collected through St Barnabas' Giving Tree.
This year's giving tree at St. Barnabas Episcopal Church on Bainbridge Island collected 175 wrapped gifts of toys, clothes and household items for 29 families in need living with HIV and AIDS in Kitsap County.
Our clients and their children had a happier holiday!
Thanks to all of our volunteers, the good folks at St. Barnabas and for everyone's support through the year!

Dear Friends,
There is no one way that people contract HIV (Human Immunodeficiency Virus). The population that lives with this disease is composed of individuals, as different and distinct as any other population. The one thing all people living with HIV/AIDS have in common is the overwhelming need for love and compassion, and the right to live with dignity in a community that is supportive, understanding, and responsible.
The Kitsap County AIDS Foundation is a 501(c)(3) non-profit dedicated to assisting the most needy people who are living with HIV and AIDS by supplementing the existing network of public service organizations. Our goal is to provide practical and enlightened support to regional residents who are in need of financial, social, and emotional help.
We have recently learned that the State has cut all of our funding for our food delivery program as of January 1st. This is a big blow to the Foundation and its clients who so desperately need good nutrition for their medication regime to be most effective. This years AIDS WALK KITSAP brought in 1/3 less in needed funds for next years programs, than last year’s walk.
