We are beyond grateful for the incredible support of the Forest!

Christmas in the Forest is Providence Southwest Washington Foundation’s largest fundraising event, generating more than $16.7 million throughout its history.
Over the past 38 years, this community event has raised a significant amount each year to support Providence Mission-driven programs.

Thank you for your support!

2025 Christmas in the Forest auction and gala saw record attendance of 375 guests and was sold out in late September.  As a result, together we raised over $900,000 in support of Providence Swedish programs, including $560,000 for Palliative Care.  You can watch and share the program highlight video here.
