Intentionalist makes it easy to find and support local small businesses through everyday decisions about where we eat, drink, and shop. Small businesses are important to the social and economic fabric of our communities. From bookstores and restaurants, to stores that have sustained families for generations, local businesses are part of the heart and soul of the places where we live and work—they’re places where we come together, whether to make new connections or celebrate longtime friendships. Local businesses bring cultural diversity, contribute philanthropically, and they simply make our communities better.

Everyone deserves the chance to live their healthiest life, but that vision is out of reach for far too many people. For nearly 40 years, Lifelong has fought for marginalized communities with relentless compassion—because no one should have to battle stigma, judgment, or the devastating effects of illness alone. Lifelong’s wraparound care model supports the whole person by breaking down barriers and improving access to nutritious food, stable housing, and vital health resources for people living with diabetes, HIV, kidney disease, and other life-challenging illnesses.

People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (groundbreaking work to help protect animals and expose the exploitation of animals who are suffering in laboratories, in the food industry, in the clothing trade, and in the entertainment industry)

Greenpeace (the leading independent campaigning organization that uses non-violent direct action and creative communication to expose global environmental problems and promote solutions that are essential to a green and peaceful future)

The Duwamish tribe were the original inhabitants of the Seattle-Metropolitan area, whose land was stolen by colonizers. Real Rent Duwamish calls on people who live and work in Seattle to make rent payments to the Duwamish Tribe. The Tribe has yet to be justly compensated for their land, resources, and livelihood.

You can do something today to stand in solidarity with First Peoples of this land by paying Real Rent. All funds go directly to Duwamish Tribal Services (DTS) to support the revival of Duwamish culture and the vitality of the Duwamish Tribe. Though the city named for the Duwamish leader, Chief Seattle thrives.

Northwest Immigrant Rights Project promotes justice by defending and advancing the rights of immigrants through direct legal services, systemic advocacy, and community education.
