The Port of Seattle established the South King County Community Impact Fund (SKCCIF) to develop equity-based partnerships and provide resources and support in historically underserved near-airport communities. The fund will award $10 million between 2019 and 2023 to address noise mitigation, environmental health, and sustainability in these ethnically and culturally diverse communities.
In response to the devastating impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our community, the Port of Seattle Commission has added economic development as an additional focus for the South King County Community Impact Fund (SKCCIF). This is part of a larger effort from the Port to lead an equitable recovery to sustain and support the Port, create jobs, increase equity, retain small businesses, improve the environment, and restore quality of life. With ties to all of Washington’s key economic sectors and connections to more than 500 employers operating at our facilities, the Port stands uniquely positioned to help lead the regional recovery.
