We’re building a feminist future—and we need you with us.

Seattle NOW is a grassroots, all-volunteer chapter organizing for bold, intersectional change. We fight for reproductive justice, LGBTQIA+ rights, racial equity, and policies that put people over profit.

Support the Work

We don’t take corporate money. We don’t have paid staff. Every dollar goes directly to grassroots feminist organizing right here in Seattle—printing materials, running events, showing up at the Capitol, and building power.
