Seattle HEAT! (Hate Eradication Action Team)

The Seattle HEAT (Hate Eradication Action Team, formerly AVQRF) is fundraising to be able to help clean Seattle of hateful graffiti.

We’re addressing city government’s failure to keep public areas free of hateful, threatening, and gang-related graffiti. Help us rid our streets of racist, revolutionary or just plain hateful tagging.

Examples of funds needed and what it will buy:
$5 - Pays for one can of paint
$8 - Pays for five rollers
$10 - Pays for paint roller and tray
$15 - Pays for a telescoping paint pole
$20 - Pays for a Tyvek suit so that we can paint without ruining our clothes
$25 - Pays for gallon of graffiti removal chemical
$95 - Pays for Bodycam to help keep the team safe

We will also assist private property owners to remove this graffiti at their request. (See the contact info.)

Can't contribute financially but want to help? Contact us about ways concerned citizens can contact the Seattle City Council to demand they do their jobs and protect the city.

Donations are non-tax -deductible.

We will update this page with more examples of our work, or contact us for more pictures.

The HEAT is unaffiliated with any political groups or candidates and is completely non-partisan. We happily clean or paint over anti-cop graffiti and neo-nazi graffiti. "Hate is hate, and it gets the paint!"

Thank you for helping us keep Seattle clean, safe and welcoming for all residents.
