The Seattle Housing Levy raises funds to create and care for affordable homes, like ours! VOTE YES PROP 1 - NOV. 7 2023 SEATTLE. Renew the Seattle Housing Levy — Vote YES on Prop 1! The Housing Levy is our single most effective tool to improve housing stability and equity–providing homes and housing assistance that advance individual and comm unity health, safety, and well-being. This levy is essential to creating, acquiring, and maintaining more homes like the ones Bellwether Housing residents live in. Our current Housing Levy is set to expire at the end of 2023. Without renewal, we will dramatically limit our ability to create the affordable housing Seattle desperately needs. This renewal, following months of community engagement, scales this proven tool to meet the urgent demands of the moment— creating new homes, providing emergency assistance to reduce homelessness, and addressing the staffing needs of transitional and supportive housing. Make sure you're registered to vote . Then vote YES on Proposition 1 on November 7! For more information, visit YesForHomes.org .

Bellwether's Housing's Annual Closer to Home Benefit Event Register Keynote Our Residents Supporters Get Involved Sponsors FAQs Home Support Us Closer to Home Register Keynote Our Residents Get Involved Sponsors FAQs KEYNOTE SPEAKER Raj Chetty William A. Ackman Professor of Economics and Director of Opportunity Insights at Harvard His work has fundamentally changed how we understand the connection between home and future outcomes. Through large-scale data analysis, Raj and his team have shown that where a child grows up — access to stable housing, safe neighborhoods, and opportunity-rich communities — can have a profound impact on lifelong earnings, education, and overall well-being. These findings are especially urgent today, as affordable housing remains increasingly out of reach for many families. His research underscores a powerful truth: expanding access to stable, affordable homes is one of the most effective ways to break cycles of poverty and create pathways to upward mobility. By partnering with local communities and policymakers, these insights are translated into real-world strategies that help families not only find housing, but access opportunity. Who does Bellwether serve? Bellwether Housing serves individuals and families with low to moderate incomes across King County, providing safe, stable, and affordable housing. Our residents include seniors, working families, young professionals, veterans, and people with disabilities—anyone who might otherwise struggle to find housing in our region’s expensive rental market. By creating and managing affordable homes, we help ensure that everyone, regardless of income, has the opportunity to live and thrive in our communities. 2025 EVENT PHOTOS How You Can Help JOIN US AT CLOSER TO HOME Hear from renowned expert Dr. Jamil Zaki about how empathy shapes thriving neighborhoods, and discover your role in building a more compassionate Seattle.

Seattle in particular has a history of housing segregation, redlining, and systematically denying people of color access to safe and affordable homes.

Partners Impact OUR IMPACT 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.
