Tulalip Tribe honors local charities

On Nov. 22, the Tulalip Tribes held a celebration of Raising Hands. The event, held at the beautiful new Tulalip Resort, was to honor and give thanks to the many charities that do so much for so many. The evening was a combination of wonderful food, entertainment and enlightenment. By learning more about the history and the culture of the tribe we are better able to work together for the benefit of our community.

We thank you, Tulalip Tribes, it is an honor to work with you hand-in-hand to make our community a better place in which to live. Thank you for a wonderful evening and your continued support of Assistance League of Everett.

Wendy Taylor

President
