Annual Honoring Heroes Fundraising Event Runs April 1-30, 2021 at Olympic Hot Tub
April 7, 2021
Event Honors Washington State Nurses Emergency Assistance Fund
Donation Goal is $22,000
SEATTLE WA – Washington’s Frontline Nurses have been battling COVID 19 for over a year and they’re exhausted. Many have fallen ill, but incredibly, when they quarantine, many must use their own paid sick leave to keep their patients safe. Now their finances are exhausted, too. Olympic Hot Tub wants to help!
From April 1 – April 30, 2021, during its 5th Annual Honoring Heroes Event, Olympic Hot Tub has chosen to honor and support the Washington State Nurses Emergency Assistance Fund. A grant from the fund can help a frontline nurse pay rent, pay for childcare, or cover their own health care costs. Currently the fund is out of money.
Olympic Hot Tub will donate a portion of each Hot Spring Spa, Freeflow Spa, xStream Swim Spa, and Covana Automated Gazebo sold in the month April to help replenish funds of this critical program to provide frontline nurses with the emergency financial assistance they desperately need. This year’s donation goal is set at $22,000.
Olympic Hot Tub also encourages community members to donate directly to the Washington State Nurses Emergency Assistance Fund this month.
Don Riling, president of Olympic Hot Tub, launched the annual Honoring Heroes Event in 2017 as a way to give back to the community his company has been a part of for over forty years. Each year Olympic Hot Tub selects a beneficiary that honors or celebrates local heroes, first responders or teachers.
