Giving Back to the Community

06.06.2025

At Heartland, we believe in the power of community and the importance of giving back. Earlier this week, members of our team had the opportunity to volunteer alongside colleagues from across the Laird Norton Enterprise at the YMCA of Greater Seattle’s Roy Street Transitional Housing Project.

This Social Impact Center provides stable housing and essential wraparound services to youth aged 18–24. Our team helped clean and refresh the property, contributing to a safe and welcoming environment for residents on their journey toward stability.

We’re grateful for the chance to support such a meaningful cause and to share the experience with our portfolio partners at Laird Norton Company, Laird Norton Wetherby and Laird Norton Family Foundation. It was a rewarding day of service, connection, and learning, and a reminder that we’re stronger when we serve together.

Heartland is proud to have been involved in with this program from its inception – first by sharing knowledge as instructors, and now by working in partnership with the UW Professional & Continuing Education (“PCE”) to provide ongoing management of the program. Now in its 38th year, this exceptionally successful professional educational program will begin on September 30, 2025.

The program benefits both individuals and employers by offering a comprehensive understanding of the Commercial Real Estate business. Graduates better understand client needs and how to be more effective in the development cycle, enabling them to provide deeper support and insight. It’s an excellent way for mid-career professionals to advance their careers, significantly enhance their effectiveness within their current organization, and expand their network across the various sectors in the built environment.

If you are interested in applying, head to the UW PCE site to learn more about the program and sign up to join one of the upcoming online informational sessions listed below.

05.21.2025

Heartland is very pleased to see Snohomish County 911 move into this great new facility! While we finished our part of this project (site search & acquisition) back in 2022, we know our friends at OAC Services, Inc. have been hard at work over the last few years turning it into a state of the art, multi-agency, mission critical facility to serve the growing population of Snohomish County.

Congratulations to Sno911 and great job everyone!

Snow Day at Crystal Mountain!❄️

04.02.2025

The Heartland team recently took to Crystal Mountain for our 7th Annual Snow Day Event!

To ensure more Heartlanders could join in on the fun, everyone chose their activity from skiing, snowboarding, and snowshoeing, and it was a day filled with fun, relaxation, and snow! This yearly outing gives us a chance to unwind and enjoy some time together outside and to recharge as a team.

Here’s to more adventures and great moments in 2025!
