Steves’ generosity to community saves Lynnwood hygiene center

Published 1:30 am Friday, January 2, 2026

The generosity of Rick Steves has once again supported the local community by buying the Lynnwood Hygiene Center (“South SnoCo’s only hygine center secures support to stay open,” The Herald, Dec. 18).

As he stated it is his response to a decline in public investment.

Such a wonderful gift to help those in need.
