2006 Employee Giving Program

Pictures from an informational event put together by Diane Fjarlie from DNRP/WTD – she invited fellow King County Employee Benita Thomas and her daughter, Ani Thomas, to come talk about how Make-a-Wish Foundation made Ani’s struggle with leukemia a little easier by brightening up her Christmas with a playhouse in her backyard. Ellen Rohwer from Make-a-Wish Foundation was present to talk about her organization and volunteering opportunities coming up.
