The pajama drive at Fairwinds of Redmond ended Nov. 16 with a pajama party. All of the pajamas donated by residents, staff, family members and the community will be donated to foster children.

“The pajama drive has become very special to our community. It makes us all feel a sense of accomplishment when we see how many donations came in,” stated Nick Glenn, executive director at Fairwinds of Redmond. “But the real winners are the kids.”
