Final Days of the Effort to Purchase the Deer Harbor Post Office--Please Help

We are at a crucial point in our effort to save the Deer Harbor Post Office.

The Deer Harbor Community has a one-time opportunity to buy the Deer Harbor Post Office property, and secure a 10-year lease commitment from the US Postal Service. If we fail to raise the money and purchase the post office property, we will probably lose the Deer Harbor Post Office forever.

As of yesterday, donors had contributed and pledged just under $93,000 towards the $250,000 needed. We must raise as close to $250,000 as possible before the closing date of July 8th. (The USPS granted us a 12 day extension--whew!)

We have received donations from $100 to $10,000 so far. Any donation you can give will be helpful and very appreciated. Your donation is tax deductible to the full extent provided by law. (The DH Community Club is a 501 (c) (3) non-profit.)


If for some reason the purchase of the post office property falls through, all donations will be returned in full.

Please make checks payable to the Deer Harbor Community Club, and mark them "Post Office Purchase." Mail donations to:
Deer Harbor Community Club
PO Box 57
Deer Harbor, WA 98243

A Donation Form, FAQ, and Letter is posted on the Deer Harbor Community Club Website.

Thank you for your support!!!
