||| FROM ORCAS CENTER |||
Unless you’ve used the Orcas Center kitchen for your events or meetings, you may not have known that we didn’t have a dishwasher! Instead, we had a dish sanitizer, where dishes had to be washed by hand, and then sanitized in the machine. As you can imagine, this would create a lot of extra work for our volunteers, staff, and those who hosted events.
Thanks to a generous donor, we were able to install an honest-to-goodness commercial dishwasher and upgrade our washing racks. We also obtained dishware that will now be available to other non-profit organizations on Orcas Island. Instead of each non-profit having to purchase and store common items, we can now all share these resources! This allows Orcas Center to better serve our amazing non-profit community on the island.
Watch Dimitri demonstrate the snazzy new commercial dishwasher!
Ooooh! Ahhhh!

Hell yeah! Thank you, donor!
This is fantastic news. THANK YOU DONOR! Thank you Orcas Center! This is a game changer for fundraisers at the OC.
As a former dish washer after events, and may I please speak for my fellow dishwashers, THANK YOU, donor, Dimitri, and all involved.
