Thanks to the incredible generosity of our residents and staff, we are proud to share that our August Hygiene Drive was a resounding success! Together, we collected 15 full boxes of essential hygiene products to support the South Sound YMCA Shower Appointment Program.

Drives like this are about more than donations. They are about showing up for one another, stepping outside of our individual lives, and recognizing the power we have when we come together for a greater purpose. These opportunities remind us that giving back isn’t just a gesture – it’s an act of solidarity, empathy, and shared humanity.

Wow! During our October Chili Drive, residents and staff generously donated a total of 986 cans of chili, making a meaningful contribution to All Kids Win.

All Kids Win, formerly Homeless Backpacks, is a non-profit organization that provides food for the weekend to homeless teens in Thurston County. Some teens are in government-supported meal programs during the school day but lack access to food on the weekend. Each week, volunteers deliver food bags to local middle and high schools in Lacey, Tumwater and Olympia, as well as K-12 in Yelm, Rainier, Tenino and Rochester. Chili is an excellent, shelf-stable, source of protein, and the most expensive item included in the backpacks.

As always, this year’s Walk to End Alzheimer’s was both impactful and moving, bringing together countless individuals united in a common cause. Team Panorama truly shone, and we are incredibly grateful to everyone who participated and contributed to the day’s success. It was heartwarming to see such strong support from the community, with friends, families and pets coming together to raise awareness for Alzheimer’s.

We were proud to serve as the Purplest Pooch sponsor once again! Many dogs joined in the fun, sporting their finest purple attire, which added a joyful touch to the event. It was wonderful to see so many furry friends strutting their stuff and posing for photos for a chance to win a $100 gift card to MudBay.

Thank you to everyone who took part in this meaningful event! Watch the video below for some highlights!

Each year, we look forward to our Back to School Supply Drive with great enthusiasm. It’s a wonderful opportunity for us to come together as a community and support students in their educational journey.

Our 2024 Drive recently wrapped up! We’re thrilled that students at North Thurston Public Schools will be more prepared to return to school with the supplies they need to succeed, thanks to the generous donations from our residents and staff! All contributions were delivered to the North Thurston Public School’s Family and Youth Resource Center.

Our annual Giving Tree event was a great success! We adopted local families through the North Thurston Public Schools Family and Youth Resource Center and Family Education Support Services. Overall, Panorama residents, staff and vendors donated 235 presents to 11 families with 35 children. We are so grateful to everyone who joined us in spreading holiday joy!
