Celebrating who we are & what we can be together.

Presented by the Kitsap Community Foundation, the Celebration of Philanthropy is an annual event that brings our community together to celebrate the spirit of generosity that makes Kitsap a place that we are all proud to call home. 

​

On this special evening, we celebrate our honorees and recognize the incredible work of our region’s nonprofit organizations. This year’s event features award-winning TV and movie actor Tom Skerritt sharing his passion for the art and power of storytelling. There will also be an opportunity to support Kitsap Community Foundation and our broad place-based mission to serve as a catalyst for the greater good through a limited-live auction and “raise the paddle.”
