The Kirkland Fraternal Order of Eagles and Women’s Auxiliary continue to support their local community.

Kicking off the new school year, the organization donated more than $1,200 in school supplies to not only local schools like Finn Hill, Rosehill and Kirkland Junior High, but also to Sibling House, which provides housing for foster siblings.

Over the last 10 years, the Eagles have raised and donated $34,000 to Ronald McDonald House, $4,000 to Hopelink, $1,400 to CASA, $1,500 for Alzheimer’s research, $1,600 to Locks of Love, 32 winter coats, 175 pounds of school supplies and $800 towards a new van to the Kirkland Boys and Girls Club and four oxygen delivery systems to Medic One.

Anyone interested in donating to this year’s Christmas coat drive can contact the Eagles at 425-822-2681.
