The first month of every quarter, our office donates one quarter for every office visit to a local charitable organization. We invite you to donate any spare change you have jingling in your pocket, too!
During October, 2018* we are donating to Christmas House!
See the results of previous campaigns here.
*Dr. Matt welcomed a baby into the world on September 22. We are running our campaign October 15-November 14 so we have one full month to give!
In addition to donating one quarter per visit, we will donate $40 per new patient referral! We love helping your friends and family and giving back to the community. It is a double win!
Roy did not live to see the second Christmas House, but his memory lives on as we now look forward to our 38th year, Christmas House 2018. The general format of how Christmas House functions has not changed over the years, just the number of families and individual children who benefit from his dream over three decades ago.Christmas House is a 100% volunteer, non-profit organization in Everett, Washington that provides an opportunity for qualifying, low-income, Snohomish County parents to select free holiday gifts for their children age infant-18 years old. In 2017 they provided over 46,000 gifts to 7,500 children from 2,500 families.

Christmas House was founded in 1981 by Roy Fraser in his garage. Roy had heard of children in Snohomish County who had not received anything for the prior Christmas and was determined to change that. He established the first annual Christmas House and stocked it primarily with used toys and handmade items, which they refurbished and gave away to families in need. They served more than 100 children the first year.
