Mission

SEATTLE NEIGHBORHOOD GREENWAYS ORGANIZES AND MOBILIZES PEOPLE TO MAKE EVERY NEIGHBORHOOD A GREAT PLACE TO WALK, BIKE, ROLL AND LIVE.

  • Safer Streets Connected Communities: We continue to advocate for a city where everyone can walk, bike, and thrive. Through community engagement, thought leadership, and coalition building, we helped secure the largest investment in pedestrian and bike safety in Seattles history, ensuring better sidewalks, bike lanes, and safer streets for years to come. After years of community advocacy, we celebrated the completion of key projects like the MLK Jr. Way S Safety Project, improving walking and biking between the Central District and South Seattle. Construction began on key corridors, including Beacon Ave, Eastlake Ave, and E Marginal Way, while smaller projects included upgraded sidewalks, crossings, and greenways citywide, adding safety measures like speed cushions and all-way stops. Seattles first permanent School Streets set a precedent for safe access to schools. We also hosted events and workshops to bring people together.

    Expenses $248,876

  • Vision Zero: We continue to hold the City of Seattle accountable to its Vision Zero goal of zero traffic fatalities or serious injuries by 2030. We organized in communities most impacted by traffic violence to fix dangerous streets and build safe places for people to walk, bike, and roll. The MLK Transportation Justice Team planned and held an event with community members and policymakers to raise awareness in the MLK corridor, one of Seattles most dangerous streets, for World Day of Remembrance for Road Traffic Victims. Through our work, the city committed to fixing the five most dangerous streets as part of the Keep Seattle Moving Levy, and committed to prioritizing safety first in all transportation projects as part of the Seattle Transportation Plan.

    Expenses $173,082

  • Mobility Justice: Whose Streets? Our Streets (WSOS) is a Black, Indigenous, and People of Color-led and focused workgroup that advances mobility justice for communities of color in Seattle. WSOS developed relationships with BIPOC communities, offered community workshops, hosted listening sessions, and conducted extensive outreach at BIPOC community events. Based on its participatory research, WSOS also released a report of findings detailing how the City of Seattle can advance more equitable policies related to automated speed cameras and create safer streets. The MLK Transportation Justice Team (MLK) is a Black-led, intergenerational group that formed to organize BIPOC communities along the MLK Jr Way S corridor for transportation safety. MLK hosted listening sessions with community members and policymakers, conducted outreach at BIPOC community events, and shared educational information with the community.

On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those.
