Worthy Foundation Steps In for Fire Victims | Spokane News

Spokane’s wildfire survivors are getting a major lifeline: the Walt and Karen Worthy Foundation is donating $10,000 to every homeowner or renter who lost most of their belongings in the devastating fires. Walt, a retired developer with deep roots in the city — and a personal tie to Balboa Elementary, where his late wife taught — made the heartfelt announcement at the school in the hardest-hit Indian Trail neighborhood. Known for reviving Spokane’s historic Davenport Hotel, the Worthys are now channeling their legacy into helping families rebuild after losing everything. This generous move isn’t just about bricks and mortar — it’s about restoring dignity and easing the immediate financial strain on those displaced by disaster.
