MOTHER'S DAY 

 In an effort to show appreciation to mothers in need, Thorpe gifted the women at Mary’s Place Mother’s Day cards. The thoughtful gesture included a custom greeting card from his real estate development company, Summit Capital Partners, and an Amazon gift certificate. The gifts were distributed to 200 women staying at the non-profit’s family shelters throughout King County.

"These women have done so much for their children, and oftentimes they go without essential during tough times," said Thorpe. "I'm glad we could help make their day a little bit brighter."

​

This is Thorpe’s first collaboration with Mary’s Place. He is thrilled to join them on their mission to alleviate family homelessness and looks forward to future endeavors.

Mary’s Place is a non-profit in King County dedicated to providing shelter to women and families facing barriers to permanent housing. Its mission is to ensure that no child sleeps outside in our community.

​

“We are so grateful to Jim for this generous and thoughtful gift”, said Mary’s Place Executive Director, Marty Hartman. “Our moms and families at Mary's Place are amazing, courageous parents who often go without to provide for their children. Knowing our community cares means so much!”
