DESC is the leading private organization working to end homelessness in Seattle. In addition to survival shelters and supportive housing, DESC offers housing-first programs including 1811 Eastlake, probably the most thoroughly studied housing-first program in the nation. Housing-first recognizes that housing is not the end-point of sobriety, or of getting your life together: it’s the starting point. It works.

SeedCode donates 1% of revenue to DESC. Seattle is our home and the solutions to homelessness are known and working. If you’re in Seattle and work in tech, consider bringing the 1% pledge to your company.

SeedCode is a co-founder of PauseOnError, an unconference, think-tank, and art-project for software developers. Recent events include:

2018 New Orleans, LA: Stand Tall

• Produced by Women of FileMaker
• What do inclusion, justice, and representation in tech look like?

2017 Los Gatos, CA: Meditation, Trail Running, and JavaScript

• How do we think about coding?
• How do we think?

SeedCode discounts our software for non-profits, including the Boston Area Rape Crisis Center, Social Justice Collaborative (representing immigrants, refugees, and families in deportation proceedings), the New Zealand Aids Foundation, and River’s Wish Animal Sanctuary. Please consider supporting these organizations.
