How We Are Funded
LWCLC is a Washington State Public Disclosure Commission (PDC)-registered C1/C3 organization. We receive our funding entirely from private donations from individuals, local PTA units and the Lake Washington PTSA Council, businesses, and community service organizations.
How Donations Are Spent
Donations fund materials that communicate the value that these levies and bonds bring to our community: postcard mailings and postage, advertisements, flyers, buttons, yard signs, and other promotional items and activities. Committee members donate their time and out-of-pocket expenses – LWCLC employs no staff nor compensates volunteers.
