About Us

Reliable Enterprises is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization working to better the lives of people in Lewis County and greater southwest Washington.

Our Story

Reliable Enterprises began in a garage in 1977, launched by a group of local citizens who were concerned about the welfare of disabled adults. Over the decades, the program expanded beautifully to meet the needs of its citizens: children, their parents, veterans, homeless, mentally ill, and impoverished. Now, 45 years after its humble beginning, Reliable Enterprises operates twelve programs and nice low-income housing properties, easily serving thousands of families and citizens in Lewis County.
