Today is the day: Donate to KEC and Keep Kitsap Green

KEC • March 10, 2026

Thank you to those that have already taken part in this year's Kitsap Great Give. We've set an ambitious goal this year - to raise $15,000 to further our efforts to Keep Kitsap Green through advocacy and education.


On behalf of the KEC Board, I'm happy to share that all Kitsap Environmental Coalition donations up to the first $1,000 will be matched at 100% the "Mother Tree Challenge". A "Nature Lovers Challenge" of $500 follows afterward. You can also participate in the hourly challenges - donate to meet each $100 challenge between noon and 10 p.m. and your contribution will be matched at 100%. Today, your generosity goes twice as far toward helping us advocate for our shared vision - a County where people and nature thrive in balance with each other. Your donation is also eligible for the Kitsap Great Give 5% bonus through end of day today. 


Thank you for your support of KEC!

David Onstad, President
