Building Resilience Initiative
The Building Resilience Initiative (BRI) is the
Seattle philanthropic community’s response
to the economic downturn. Drawing on our
long-term community knowledge and network
of resources, The Seattle Foundation united
generous individual donors, local foundations
and corporations to create the BRI in fall 2008.
The focus of this Initiative is to help build the
capacity of individuals, organizations and
communities to prevent King County residents
from falling further into crisis and enable them
to emerge more resilient and better equipped
to achieve future success.
