2020 Charities

Queen Anne Helpline

Queen Anne Helpline prevents homelessness and stabilizes the lives of neighbors in need through financial and supportive services. Queen Anne Helpline was formed in 1982 after a local grocery store owner realized that many seniors were buying pet food to eat because it was all they could afford. He teamed up with other community leaders to establish the Queen Anne Helpline, a neighborhood model that proved so successful six other Helplines were established around the city. By providing financial and other basic needs assistance to residents of the Queen Anne, Magnolia, and South Lake Union neighborhoods, the Helpline ensures that several thousand people annually have secure housing, are able to pay their utility bills, and have adequate food and clothing.

 
 

Fair Fight 2020

The 2020 election will carry historic consequences. But foreign interference and sophisticated voter suppression threatens our ability to freely elect our leaders. If we start early and work together, we will ensure that every American voter’s voice is heard and that Democrats up and down the ballot win.

Fair Fight 2020 is building voter protection teams with Democratic state parties or local allies across the country to protect the right to vote—and we’re starting now. Sign up today to ensure that 2020 is a Fair Fight.

Fair Fight 2020’s engagement will vary by state and our work complies with each state’s unique campaign finance laws.
