CONNECT INFORM COLLABORATE
We are a go-to resource for the Queen Anne community — connecting neighbors, sharing reliable information, and fostering collaboration to build a vibrant, resilient, and engaged neighborhood.
The QACC is now officially a 501(c)(3) nonprofit! This milestone was nearly a year in the making, as the Board carefully weighed the pros and cons, explored alternative legal structures, and consulted with peer community organizations across the city to assess best practices and governance models. Along the way, we updated our bylaws and articles of incorporation and aligned our board structure with current Washington State nonprofit standards.
Our new status opens the door to tax-deductible donations and creates opportunities for more strategic investments and future initiatives. We’re excited about this next chapter and will continue to do what we do best: connecting, informing, and collaborating. It’s a great time to join us in shaping the future (contact us at queenannecc@gmail.com).
