So Proud to Give!

Give a Little, Get a Lot...is it really true? Find out for yourself.

If you live in Kirkland, you've probably already heard about the “Give a Little, Get a Lot” campaign from the Kirkland Downtown Association (KDA), which is trying raise money to pay for all the great events downtown this year.

I am a total supporter of this kind of campaign, not just because I own a business in downtown, but because I love Kirkland and I'm proud of this community.

So if you haven't already done so, I want to encourage you to do your best and be a part of this campaign. It isn’t about how much you give, but why you give. If you are like me, very proud to be in Kirkland, show our pride by supporting this campaign together. You may learn more about this campaign and donate here.

On the same giving spirit, I want to invite you to visit Simplicity Décor and shop
on Saturday, July 2 and Sunday, July 3, as we will donate 5% of our proceeds to KDA for this “Give a Little, Get a Lot” campaign.

Also, we are looking for four more local non-profits or charities that will contribute for the rest of the weekends in July. So if you wish to nominate your favorite causes and/or charity, please visit Simplicity Décor’s website for more details.
