Yuletide Bazaar to benefit nonprofits

SEQUIM — Dungeness Valley Lutheran Church’s annual Yuletide Bazaar will offer hundreds of crafted items for sale from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Saturday.

The Yuletide Bazaar at the church at 925 N. Sequim Ave. has raised more than $100,000 for 27 nonprofits that help women, children, the developmentally disabled and veterans since its inception in 1999, said Linda Carlson, one of the event’s organizers.

All items are donated. No crafter profits from the event and there are no outside vendors or commercially manufactured new items for sale.

All proceeds are donated to nonprofits in Sequim and Port Angeles, such as Clallam Mosaic, North Olympic Foster Parent Association, Voices for Veterans, Peninsula Behavioral Health, Dungeness Valley Health and Wellness Clinic, Forks Abuse Program and Pro Bono Attorneys.

The crafters themselves — most of them women, according to organizers — choose charities to donate.

Among the goods for sale will be handcrafted gifts, table and tree decorations, holiday linens, wreaths, winter wear, jewelry, Advent calendars, aprons and bibs, lefse, krumkake, cinnamon rolls, pies, cakes and vintage treasures.

Lunch will be available from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m.
