Real Community Heroes Awards & Celebration

The Awards & Celebration annual event is hosted by Homes First to acknowledge and honor the exceptional individuals in Thurston County making strides toward addressing the housing crisis and the people affected by it.

This celebration honors real community heroes who dedicate their time and energy to making the community a healthier and more affordable place. Each year’s heroes are chosen by the previous year’s winners. This grassroots approach focuses on individuals who are working on the ground in the community, creating an uplifting and illuminating cycle of these everyday heroes.

​The event includes refreshments and our ever-popular raffle baskets!
