EAST WENATCHEE â Two cloth bags over each arm, Kai Bromiley set off around the gym. By the time he completed the loop, the bags were stuffed to the brim with supplies.
Bromiley was among a few dozen volunteers who gathered Saturday and Sunday to assemble kits of hygiene products and other essentials for those in need. The project, called Holiday Help for the Homeless, is now in its sixth year.
âWe have some folks here who Iâve met through Facebook who have experienced homelessness themselves,â co-organizer Karen Cunningham said Saturday. âSo itâs a mixed bag of people and a mixed bag of reasons why theyâre here, but itâs all because they want to help.â
