Explore RBAC’s branches in our series, “Four Branches, Four Colors.” From “A Place for Everyone” in blue (economic development, transportation, housing, small business development), to “Lifelong Learning” in black (academic and education advocacy, organization’s operations work), to “A Beautiful Safe Place” in orange (the arts and neighborhood safety), and “Growing Food for a Healthy Industry” in green (farmer support and food justice). Join us on a succinct journey through RBAC’s commitment to the Rainier Beach neighborhood through its projects and its system and policy change efforts.
There will also be monthly fundraisers that will support each branch, with an overall goal of raising $20,000. The first fundraiser, focused on A Place for Everyone, takes place in October, with a goal of $5,000 to support projects like the Recreating Henderson Project, initiatives to boost local businesses, and our Priority Hire efforts.
The goal for each branch is to raise 5,000 to help launch the necessary work RBAC will be doing in 2025!
