Former client, Ricky Naffziger (2019), attended with his daughter, Angelina, and shared his inspiring story.
We met and exceeded our goal
of raising $40,000
at Families Together 2025!
Thank you to everyone
who made this possible.
Our annual fundraising event, Families Together, was a big success!
We had more than 100 supporters and guests attend our annual fundraising gala. The elegant event featured a silent auction, dessert dash, Raise the Paddle, and much more.
As we celebrate the Interfaith Family Shelter’s 40-year legacy, this event was an opportunity to reflect upon our journey from a tiny shelter in the basement of a church all those years ago to a thriving organization that provides 45% of all family emergency shelter units in Snohomish County.
Current and former Board members, prior Executive Directors, and current and former staff joined in the festivities.
Ricky Naffziger, a single dad who successfully exited our shelter program into housing six years ago, attended with his young daughter. He credited the Interfaith Family Shelter with reunifying his family and getting him into permanent housing.
And here is the best part:
We met and exceeded our goal to raise $40,000 at this event!
Generous supporters gave toward a range of auction items, bid on delectable desserts, and raised their paddles to help us meet the fundraising goal.
The numbers are still being finalized, but a preliminary tally shows that we raised more than $56,370!
Current and former Board members mingle at Families Together 2025.
A HUGE thank you to everyone who gave generously to make the evening a success!
