PACRAO Gives Back 2025
PACRAO Gives Back
The Diversity Development Committee is proud to introduce Partners INW as this year's charitable organization for the 2025 PACRAO Annual Conference.
Partners INW has been serving the community for over 75 years as Spokane County’s largest free food, clothing, and diaper bank. Every month, they help more than 15,000 neighbors in crisis—ensuring families don’t go without essentials like food, diapers, or warm clothing.
With over 90% of funding going directly to programs, your donations make a real and immediate impact. Partners INW distributes more food than any other pantry in the county, providing 27% of the total food supply to local pantries, while also serving as the lead agency for statewide programs like EFAP and CSFP. Beyond food, they run one of the region’s only diaper banks—supporting families across 22 counties, with plans to reach 29 by 2026.
Every can, every box, every contribution matters. Donate Now!
