PULLMAN— Pullman Regional Hospital Women’s Leadership Guild has awarded $2,000 to five local non-profits for this year’s grant cycle. Awards were presented on Thursday, Nov. 10.

Members voted to award The Lauren McCluskey Foundation, Palouse Discovery Science Center, Palouse School Food Pantry, United Way of Whitman County, and the Willow Center for Grieving Children.

The Lauren McCluskey Foundation is using the awarded funds to display “Lauren’s Promise Safety Cards” in public and private restrooms to help victims access the national dating abuse hotline. Palouse Discover Science Center is using the money to fund the Mudskippers Outdoor Group for early learners, their caregivers and siblings, which will also help provide tools to improve access and accessibility to the nature loop used in the program. Palouse School Food Pantry is delivering nutritious snacks to children through the food pantry. United Way is partnering with the Dolly Parton Imagination Library to send age appropriate books every month to enrolled children 5 and under. Willow Center for Grieving Children will send children to camp Erin, a grief camp in the summer of 2023 for children who have lost a loved one.

The Women’s Leadership Guild is in its eighth year, and has raised and gifted more than $265,750 to support women’s and children’s health and wellness and Pullman Regional Hospital’s highest needs.
