Overview of our programs


If you call the Seattle area your home, you have seen the increasing rate of homelessness in the area over the past 10 years. With homeless numbers growing at a pace faster that of New York City and Los Angeles, the people in Seattle who are better off economically cannot ignore the large number of our neighbors who are struggling daily. A community cannot be considered truly strong until those among us who are struggling are lifted up by those who are able to lift. This is what binds us together and compels us to act.

Founded in 2018 by a group of like-minded individuals, Humanize Homelessness, was started to help the already hard working shelters bridge the gap between people who need help and the individuals & businesses who can help. Learn more by watching our Overview video.
