Our new charity is YWCA - The Other Bank!

Serving Thurston, Mason and Lewis Counties since 1986. The Other Bank provides toiletries such as shampoo, toothpaste, toilet paper, diapers, and feminine supplies to those in need. We also offer necessities of daily living such as dish soap, laundry detergent, and hand soap. Products distributed by The Other Bank cannot be purchased with food stamps and are not available at food banks; yet they are essential for maintaining health and personal dignity. The Other Bank offers assistance to over 120 families each week, representing 350-450 individuals. One-third of our clients are younger than 13 and half of these children are under the age of 5. Our clients are also elderly, disabled, homeless, unemployed, or are just struggling the make ends meet and would have to go without these items if we did not have them available. Our inventory depends on the generosity of each and every donation no matter how small or large.
