Kidder Mathews has announced the results of its first Holiday Giving Campaign, raising $81,145 to support three nonprofits addressing hunger and housing needs in the communities the company serves. Contributions from employees, brokers, and the Kidder Mathews Foundation came together to create a meaningful impact this holiday season.
“We have organized smaller fundraisers in the past, but we are thrilled to make a bigger difference this year through the foundation,” said Bill Frame, SIOR, CCIM, Chairman and CEO of Kidder Mathews. “It’s incredible to see what we can accomplish when we combine our efforts, and we’re excited to continue building on this tradition in the years ahead.”
Key donations from the campaign include:
- $30,000 to Habitat for Humanity – Supporting their mission to provide safe, affordable housing for families. The Kidder Mathews Foundation donated $15,000 on Giving Tuesday, where all contributions were doubled through the nonprofit.
- $20,000 to Home Team Harvest – Washington’s largest annual food drive, benefiting Northwest Harvest in raising 24 million meals statewide. CEO Bill Frame and SVP of Marketing Christina Twidale personally delivered the check during an appearance on King 5 News in Seattle. Northwest Harvest is Washington’s largest hunger relief agency, working with a network of 400 food banks, meal programs, and schools.
- $31,145 to Feeding America – The nation’s leading hunger relief organization, which partners with food banks, pantries, and meal programs nationwide. Funds were raised through a friendly competition among Kidder Mathews’ regions, with brokers and staff donating generously. To amplify the impact, the Kidder Mathews Foundation contributed $5,000 per region, enhancing the collective effort.
