How to Donate
Whether you want to contribute to Seattle Children's because you have an interest in supporting a particular department or program, or simply because you want to support our overall mission, you have options for directing your gift.
Unrestricted donations provide the most flexibility to meet the needs of our young patients and are used for Children's greatest needs. Unless otherwise directed, we will use your gift for this purpose.
If you wish to restrict your donation, please provide us with this information when you make your gift. A partial list of possibilities for restricted funds is listed on our Donate Now page.
If you have questions, please call the Foundation/Guild Association office at 206-987-2153 or email us.
Some donors choose to create an endowment. This is a permanent fund, created with a gift of $50,000 or more, and usually named in honor of the donor, a patient or other individual chosen by the donor.
The principal remains invested, while the income generated by the endowment is used to support specific programs or needs of Children's. For more information about endowments, please contact us.
