Because of you, our Fairfax Bridge petition has reached 10,000 signatures!

This incredible milestone shows that people across Washington and beyond care deeply about Wilkeson’s future and continued access to Mount Rainier National Park. We are truly grateful for your support!

But here at home, the crisis is real and urgent: Wilkeson’s small businesses — the restaurants, shops, and services that define our town, are struggling to survive. Compared to last year, some have already lost nearly half of their income, while others are barely hanging on week to week. Local officials have even suggested that some businesses may simply have to close. We refuse to accept that. With your help, we can fight to keep Wilkeson’s businesses alive.

That’s why we’ve launched the Wilkeson Small Business Relief Fund — a GoFundMe campaign to provide immediate support for Wilkeson’s small businesses during this crisis. Donate Here!

How You Can Help

  • Donate: Every contribution, no matter the size, will go directly to Wilkeson businesses providing short-term relief to stabilize businesses until access is restored.
  • Share: Please spread the word about this relief fund with your family, friends, and networks.
  • Stay Engaged: Continue to sign, share, and amplify our petition so state leaders know this crisis cannot be ignored.

Wilkeson has always been, and will remain, a gateway town. With your help, we can protect jobs, keep businesses open, and ensure our community survives this crisis while we fight for long-term access to Mount Rainier.

Thank you for your continued support and solidarity. Together, we are keeping Wilkeson strong!
