From the Treasurer’s Desk:

Having trouble spending down the Covid relief funds? Here are a few
suggestions: Burial or cremation pre-planning; set up a Washington State
ABLE Savings Account; or Donate to Friends of Fircrest. Donations can be
designated for campus wide resident enrichment activities or the general
fund that finds various ways in which to support the residents. Any

questions please call Tom Norton, Treasurer at 206-963-8393.

NETWORK FOR GOOD (Facebook Fundraising):
If you create a fundraiser for Friends of Fircrest through your Facebook

account or page, please let our Treasurer know. Facebook does not inform
us of a fundraiser’s name or contact information (so we are unable to
properly acknowledge or THANK YOU for your donation). Many thanks to
our anonymous supporters!

AMAZON SMILE (Amazon Fundraising):
We appreciate our many donors who use smile.amazon.com as a way to
provide ongoing support for residents at Fircrest RHC. Amazon does not
inform us of a donor’s name or contact information, but we know you’re out
there shopping and supporting Friends of Fircrest. Thank You!
