Good Business Network of Washington connects and inspires people to buy, produce, and invest locally, so that everyone has a meaningful stake in the local economy.
Seattle Good Business Network DBA Good Business Network of Washington pairs local economic development with food access through grant programs that support small businesses, storefront activation, and community meals. In 2025, its largest recent grant was $42,000 to Base Camp Studios LLC in Seattle for Seattle Restored support, a signal that the network uses grant dollars to help local enterprises occupy vacant space and reach customers. Another Seattle Restored award, $22,000 to Lenox LLC, shows the same emphasis on short-term pop-up support for businesses working in the city’s retail and service corridors. The network also funds food-insecure communities through Good Food Kitchens, backing restaurants, caterers, and food businesses that prepare free nourishing meals. That program connects the foundation’s stated interest in the Good Food Economy with direct service and community-based grantmaking. Recent grants include support for businesses and organizations in Seattle, Federal Way, SeaTac, Des Moines, Kent, and other Puget Sound communities, all within a pattern of practical, place-based support for local commerce and local food resilience.
A major theme is commercial activation. Through Seattle Restored, the network gave $14,006 to Frida LLC for Seattle Restored support and $7,913 to Shunpike for Seattle Restored support, both tied to short-term pop-ups and vacant storefront use in Seattle. Food security is another clear lane. Good Food Kitchens funded Chef Jalissa Culinary Co with $13,961 for community meals and Theary Cambodian Foods with $13,000 for the same purpose, showing support for prepared meal distribution rather than general food-system infrastructure. The foundation also backs locally rooted food businesses through the same meals program: Global To Local Health received $11,194, while ChuMinh Tofu received $9,200. Beyond food access, the network supports circular-economy business activity through its Circular Innovation Challenge, which focuses on manufactured products using waste and recycled materials.
The recent grants show a wide spread in size, from a $150 Good Business Connections stipend to awards above $40,000, with the middle of the distribution centered on small-to-mid five-figure grants. The foundation is a public charity, not a private family foundation, and it does not fund individuals or make program-related investments. Grantmaking appears program-based and recurring rather than one-off: Seattle Restored and Good Food Kitchens both recur across multiple awards in the 2025 file, with several organizations receiving support under those programs. One active program, Good Business Connections Stipend, is explicitly a $150 participation payment, while Seattle Restored also accepts unsolicited interest.

Giving is concentrated in Washington, with recipient locations spanning Seattle and nearby Puget Sound cities. Seattle appears most often in the recent grants list, followed by Federal Way, SeaTac, Des Moines, and Kent. The country distribution is entirely U.S.-based, with 16 grants in the United States and none recorded elsewhere. Although the foundation’s headquarters is in Seattle, the recipient map reflects a broader local footprint across the metro area rather than only the HQ city. That includes storefront and food-program support in central Seattle as well as meal-oriented grants in South King County communities.
The foundation funds small businesses, food businesses, and community-serving organizations through programs such as Seattle Restored and Good Food Kitchens. Its stated focus areas include local economic development, small business support, food systems, workforce and youth programs, local manufacturing, sewn goods, and place-based activation.
Through Good Food Kitchens, it funds restaurants and caterers that prepare free nourishing meals for community members facing food insecurity. Recent awards in that program went to organizations such as Chef Jalissa Culinary Co, Theary Cambodian Foods, and Project Feast.
Yes. Seattle Restored provides no-cost leases, financial support, and technical assistance to small businesses for short-term pop-ups in Seattle and the Puget Sound area. The program is open to unsolicited interest and is designed to activate vacant storefronts and expand market access.
Grant sizes vary widely. Recent awards include a $150 Good Business Connections stipend, five-figure program grants in the middle of the range, and a $42,000 Seattle Restored award at the high end. The distribution suggests the foundation uses both small participation stipends and larger operating-style support.
