The Business Community Ownership Fund is the nation’s first business property ownership program designed to preserve and strengthen small businesses that enhance the vibrancy of local Seattle neighborhoods. This ground-breaking program supports small businesses by lowering tenant costs, increasing business incomes, and fostering economic stability.

Baker neighborhood, became the first business to open in their new space under this model.  

Originally opened in 2003, restauranter and community advocate Donna Moodie named Marjorie’s restaurant in homage to her beloved mother. A warm, welcoming hostess and inspired home cook, Marjorie delighted in bringing people together around the family table to partake in delicious food and spirited conversation. With investment from the BCO Fund, Moodie is now reopening Marjorie’s, which closed in 2023, in a new space, new neighborhood and with a new concept.
