About Steve and Karen Hall: According to BCF, the couple are “quiet leaders in supporting the issues they care about, unique in their commitment and a model for others. Passionate about local schools, the Halls are dedicated to seeing the Bainbridge community provide the best possible education for every child.”

About Windermere Bainbridge, BCF officials said the island real estate firm, “doesn’t just sell homes, they build community. The firm is dedicated to serving Bainbridge Island through the volunteerism and personal philanthropy of their leadership and agents, and how they introduce new families and businesses to the island. The office culture is deeply rooted in service, from its founding by John Jacobi, through the stewardship of owners Ed Kushner and Jim Laws, into the present ownership of Carter and Tori Dotson.”

About the Rotary Auction & Rummage Sale youth volunteers, BCF officials said, they “are integral to the success of the Rotary Auction and Rummage, and many kids go above and beyond to make the event successful. They are an innovative and energetic force, and bring new ideas and fresh perspective. Some youths volunteer year after year with generations of family members participating, and take away life skills from their service.”
