Event Inspiration
Are you a culinary crafter? Jill and Micaela, a mother-daughter team who love to cook, decided to try their hands at raising a little dough to help kids in foster care. They asked their friends and family to submit their favorite recipes, compiled them into a cookbook and sold it to support Treehouse. The result? A fun and fulfilling project that was so successful, they’re now working on a second edition. Whether it’s through cooking, baking or other creative endeavors, there are endless ways to get involved and make a difference for young people in foster care.
Think outside the suit! For staff in the Seattle office of Marsh USA, casual Friday is more than a fashion statement – it’s an opportunity to change lives. Every Marsh employee who chooses to wear jeans on Fridays donates five dollars to the Denim Days fund. Each month, a local organization is selected from employee suggestions to receive the funds. Treehouse was the lucky beneficiary of a denim dividend!
Teach your kids the joy of giving back! When Jackson turned eight, he decided to make his birthday party about more than just cake and presents. He asked his friends to bring gifts for youth in foster care, and together they made a big impact. Jackson and his parents personally delivered the gifts to Treehouse, where he saw firsthand the difference he made in the lives of others. It was a birthday he’ll never forget!
