Kirkland Chamber auction to benefit Lake Washington Schools Foundation

The Greater Kirkland Chamber of Commerce has chosen the Lake Washington Schools Foundation as its beneficiary of this year's fund-a-need portion of its annual auction.

While the auction serves as the primary annual fundraiser for the chamber, a local organization is also chosen to receive funds raised in a special appeal during the live auction portion of the evening. The chamber has helped to raise more than $100,000 over the past decade for such organizations.

This year, the Lake Washington Schools Foundation has been selected for its role in supplying supplemental funding to students for programs outside the regular curriculum in the Lake Washington School District. The chamber looks to aid in that funding for programs that will introduce students to business.

The auction will be held at 5:30 p.m. on May 18 at the Woodmark Hotel. For more information, contact the chamber office at 822-7066.[[In-content Ad]]
