Martha & Mary company history timeline

1891

In 1891, Reverend Ingebrit Tollefson and other leaders of the First Lutheran Church (Fordefjord Congregation, at that time, a member of the United Norwegian Lutheran Church) saw the need for an orphanage in the region.

1909

An "old folks" home opened in 1909 as a board and care place named Ebenezer.

1953

In 1953, the leadership determined that the organization could best serve community needs by offering nursing care for the elderly.

1980

In 1980, after decades of service, the Ebenezer "board and care" closed.

1983

In 1983, Martha & Mary again returned to caring for children, and employees were offered child care in a little red building on the grounds of the Nursing Home.

1985

Total renovation of the building was undertaken in 1984. It reopened in 1985 as Ebenezer Residential Center with apartments for residents age 62 and older.

2001

In January 2001, Martha and Mary began offering before and after school programs at seven North Kitsap School District elementary schools.

2008

From the humble beginnings of six children in a little red building to close to 1,000 children in three Martha & Mary KIDS facilities and nine elementary schools in 2008, that's a reason to celebrate!

Martha & Mary AT HOME began in early 2010, and other community services soon followed.

2012

Martha & Mary assumed management at Bay Vista Commons in June 2012.

A joint venture was undertaken with Shelter Resources, Inc., Bellevue, WA for development and construction of a new 35-unit affordable senior housing project for the Kingston community, which broke ground in 2012.
