Mission

Community Roots Housing Foundation is a 501(c)(3) raising funds to support Community Roots Housing, a Seattle-area public development authority that creates inclusive housing and fosters thriving, just communities. (See Schedule O for further detail)

990 for the year ended December 31, 2024

Program accomplishments

  • The Foundation is the backbone organization for a collaborative $45 million capital campaign called Rise Together, which kicked off in December 2017. The campaign, led by six partner organizations, is supporting six equitable development projects in the Seattle area that address urgent neighborhood issues including housing affordability, displacement, community health, economic development, and cultural preservation. Much of the capital funds are flowing through the Foundation, though a significant portion is also being secured by campaign partners. The campaign has led to the largest private gifts in the Foundations history, including multi-million-dollar grants.
    Expenses $1,100,000 · grants $1,100,000
  • The Foundation undertakes annual fundraising for unrestricted funds to support Community Roots general operating needs as well as restricted funding to support Community Roots programs. Unrestricted funds support Community Roots core activities in the Seattle area building new affordable homes for low-income individuals and families as well as operating and maintaining an existing portfolio of nearly 2,000 affordable homes for almost 2,200 residents.
    Expenses $727,321 · grants $727,321
  • In 2023, we launched a fundraising campaign for a new iteration of the rental assistance program called the Housing Stabilization Program, which not only provides one-time rental assistance, but couples it with one-on-one support that aims to address the root causes of each household's economic stability. We continued to raise and deploy funds for this program in 2024.In early 2024, the Foundation made final grants related to the Capitol Hill EcoDistrict, a former program of Community Roots Housing that was permanently relocated to a new organization, the Urban League of Metropolitan Seattle (ULMS), in fall 2023. This included grants to ULMs as well as to partners of the Capitol Hill EcoDistrict such as Birds Connect Seattle and Seattle Arts & Music Group, and Velocity Dance Center.Lastly, we made a special nutrition assistance grant to support Community Roots residents.
    Expenses $152,351 · grants $152,351
  • The Foundation mobilizes restricted funds to support Community Roots Housing's Resident Services program. Resident Services partners with residents to encourage successful tenancy and housing stability through resource and referral services, supportive programming, and community engagement opportunities. The program is grounded in the belief that when residents have access to the services and support they need to thrive and not just survive, it creates cascading impacts of housing stability, resiliency, and community connectedness.
    Expenses $46,500 · grants $46,500
