We are the SHCH, Sunset Hill Community Hall. Our organization was formed in 1922, and we built our beautiful historic building in 1929 as the Sunset Hill Improvement Club. We are one of the only five community halls left of the over 100 Community clubs in the Seattle area that were formed in the 1920’s.
We became a 501(C)4 political nonprofit in 1944, and the name changed to the Sunset Hill Community Association in 1998.
We decided that to preserve our building properly, and to serve our greater community best, we should be a full 501(C)3 charitable organization. This is allowing us to receive tax deductible donations, historic building grants, and obtain grants to promote increased community inclusiveness. We created this new IRS nonprofit in 2024 and now we will be named the Sunset Hill Community Hall.
