Community Services/Non-Profits in Kirkland, WA

“We love being a part of the LWTG community. The teachers are amazing and the kids love going to class!

We are coming up on our last quarter of LWTG with our last kid, it's bittersweet to age out from such an awesome program. It has been such an amazing part of becoming more confident in our parenting journey and while I will miss the teachers and events, we've created a great community and some lasting friendships. I would highly recommend the program to any young family.”

“There's a reason the Greater Kirkland Chamber of Commerce has 5 out of 5 stars, it's because they are INCREDIBLE!!!!!!!!!! It's amazing to see how involved they are in helping the community grow and develop in multiple different areas of business. The staff is FUN, helpful, personable, friendly, brilliant, welcoming and I could go on and on!”

“I was very pleased with hopelink in kirkland. I was in a tough spot for a while due to an injury preventing me from working and needed some assistance for a short period of time and had just moved back to WA. The staff and volunteers were very friendly and accommodating and being able to get the variety and quality of groceries here helped immensely. I plan on donating to this food bank and volunteering as I gain stability and would recommend hopelink if you need some help. Also, if you are looking for a place to give back I think this organization would be a good choice.”

“I have often thought of the Peter Kirk Community Center as ‘the little engine that could’. For such a small space, they manage to offer loads of activities here. Layout wise, they have a decent size multi-purpose room with kitchen. It is big enough to have a low height stage, and its capacity is 150 guests. They have three conference rooms that also acts as meeting rooms or classrooms. These spaces are available for rent. The online link has photos of these spaces. A reception area with a few couches and a bookcase is just inside the entry. I have seen people, young and old on these couches, mingling, and just hanging out here at all hours.

They offer senior activities during the daytime, as well as community classes throughout the day and evening. I have taken yoga classes as well as a stretching class. The class catalog is available online. Both Kirkland and non-Kirkland residents can sign up.

During special occasions, they host bigger events for the greater community. The most recent is a Lunar New Year celebration with children’s activities indoors inside the community center, the kitchen offered spring rolls to snack, the adjacent teen center building held performances, and a Chinese Lion Dance team entertained everyone outdoors on a beautiful day. It was a blast!”

“Update: The beer is now competitively priced! Kirkland Eagles is great for a good time almost any day of the week and drinks are now poured just right. Check the schedule for games and events.”

“I’ve been a proud member of Northwest MLS for many years and I couldn’t be more grateful for the support they provide to brokers and the real estate community. Their customer service is excellent, their resources are invaluable, and their leadership has been forward-thinking in guiding our industry. Thanks to their vision and proactive approach, we’ve avoided many of the challenges other MLSs across the country have faced. I also appreciate their commitment to keeping the public’s best interest at heart, especially when addressing some of the more complex and contentious issues in our industry today. Thank you NWMLS! - from all of us at The Amber Bills Real Estate Group”

“I miss this place so much. Used to go here almost every weekday with my friends from school. I met my first long term boyfriend there, and some valuable friends and memories. I dont live in Kirkland anymore so i havent gone since winter 2019, and pretty sure the place is getting demolished.. So sad to see the places youve held so dearly to you get destroyed :’(”

“Less of a selection than many of the goodwill stores I’ve seen but none the less the deals are typically good and you never know what treasure you may find. I shop there on the regular!”
