Keeping families close to care
Affordable housing for families who must relocate to Seattle for long-term care at Seattle Children’s Hospital
Partnering for a Purpose
As the Maple Leaf family, we devote our time, effort, and resources to the betterment of our communities.
Home Together began as a grassroots effort supported by Maple Leaf Property Management, who helped bring the idea to life using the tools and resources of our team. With their support, Home Together officially launched and began to take shape.
What started as a response to a critical need we witnessed firsthand—families struggling to find safe, short-term housing while their children received life-saving treatment—has grown into a lasting effort.
To this day, our work is driven by the generosity of Maple Leaf staff, property owners, tenants, and a compassionate community that believes in keeping families close to care. By partnering with our network of homeowners and hospital social workers, we continue to create meaningful housing solutions, together.
Our Mission
Home Together, (formerly Maple Leaf Foundation) is a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization formed in December of 2021.
It collaborates closely with Maple Leaf Real Estate and Seattle Children’s Hospital to create affordable and nurturing, child-centered housing, for families, who must relocate to Seattle for long term pediatric cancer and cardiac care. The majority of families we serve are low-moderate income.
Why Home Together
When a child is diagnosed with a serious illness, families are often required to relocate to Seattle—within 30 minutes of Seattle Children’s Hospital—for months at a time. Insurance doesn’t cover temporary lodging, and housing near the hospital is often scarce and unaffordable.
We provide cozy, fully furnished, and pet-friendly homes that allow families to stay together—because no one should have to choose between critical care and family stability.
How you can Help
Help Families Pay Rent
A small donation of $25–$50 per month goes much further than a one-time $100 gift. Your recurring donation can provide stable, safe homes to families during the most difficult times in their lives.
Recurring micro-donations = housing stability and peace of mind for our families.
If you’re a Maple Leaf client, you can add a tax-deductible donation directly to your monthly management fee. It’s automatic, easy, and impactful. You’ll receive a tax receipt each year, along with updates on the families you’ve helped.
Events with Heart
At Home Together, we believe that community is built one connection at a time. Our events bring people together for fun, food, and purpose—all while supporting our mission. From chili cook-offs to karaoke nights, every ticket, bite, and laugh helps fuel real change.
Join us, bring the heat, and be part of something meaningful.
