What We Do

Bringing community together to provide access to valuable steps in building community by exposing them to surrounding neighbors, resources, services(health & safety, housing & financial stability and community participation) and gatherings.

Friends of Rainier View is a group of neighbors who live in the Rainier View community in South Seattle. Who are passionate about their community and have come together to make the change they want to see. If you live in the community and want to get involved please see our Get Involved page to learn how you can help.

Thank you to everyone who participated in the Rainier Beach Playfield Skatepark design process. The project is currently working through construction documents and construction is anticipated to begin in September 2025.

The new skatepark at Rainier Beach Playfield will be a great addition to the Rainier Beach Community Center.

Please view the location and design for the skatepark below!

This is an event in memory of the founders nephew and others taking from their love ones by violence. The hope is to collaborate with community leaders to raise awareness on violence prevention. It is initiated by youth for youth to facilitate violence prevention workshops, group sessions, community booths, displays and performances to enhance violence awareness and how to avoid gang affiliation.

Many children are not fortunate to receive gifts for the holiday. Getting together as a community to collect toys for children of all ages in the community is a great opportunity to support families in need.

Put on hold due to staff turnover.

We have begun construction on several walkways in the neighborhood. Residents near the construction sites received notices in late Spring and early Summer 2024.
