Seattle Children's Hospital

Seattle Children's was founded in 1907 with a promise to our community: children in our region will receive essential healthcare regardless of a family's ability to pay. Seattle Children's guilds have been helping the hospital keep its promise ever since.

There are 500 guilds and 7,000 guild members across Washington state. Guild members are men, women and children of all ages. In fiscal year 2011, guilds raised $11 million for Children's by hosting events ranging from auctions and wine tastings to fun runs and golf tournaments.

Each guild is different; some raise several hundred dollars each year, while others raise tens of thousands and more. Guilds also meet significant needs through "heartwarming projects" -- the collection or creation of items such as blankets, toys, books and toiletries to support and comfort patients and their families. Each year, guilds donate thousands of heartwarming items.
