OUR COMMITMENT TO ANTI-RACISM
The housing system in our country advantages white people and disadvantages Black people and other people of color. Seattle in particular has a history of housing segregation, redlining, and systematically denying people of color access to safe and affordable homes.
We cannot create stable communities through affordable housing without addressing racial justice. Housing justice is racial justice.
We are committed to becoming an anti-racist organization and continuing to do the work to dismantle systemic and institutionalized racism.
Time and time again, Bellwether residents say that having affordable rent lifts a financial weight off their shoulders. Instead of worrying about the rent, they can focus on the things that make life meaningful.
Our apartments are more than a home - they are a foundation for full and rewarding lives. Residents say they can focus on career advancement, spending time with their families, building community, or saving for the future.
There is endless demand for affordable housing in Seattle. We are doubling our portfolio by 2025 in response to our region's urgent need for more great housing options for families of all shapes, sizes, and means.
It’s your turn – help us make a difference.
Our vision is that Seattle and urban King County are accessible to all people of all income levels. When we work together, we can make our region a place where everyone can live, be supported in community, and find new opportunities to follow their dreams.
We serve community members who are most impacted by the economic pressures of stagnant wages and the skyrocketing cost of living. Our residents are preschool teachers, health care workers, chefs and bakers, artists and performers, drivers, retail workers, students, retirees, and others. They are an integral part of our neighborhoods and daily life.
Your support of Bellwether’s mission helps build stronger communities that are inclusive to all income levels and backgrounds.
