Children's Hospital Guild Association: Coming Together for a Compelling Mission

Few of humanity’s ills are as troubling as pediatric diseases – and that’s exactly why the members of the Seattle Children's Hospital Guild Association band together with a compelling mission in mind. With its status as the largest all-volunteer fundraising network among all hospitals in the United States, its members are united by the mission of preventing, treating, and eliminating pediatric disease.

The Seattle Children's Hospital Guild Association is actually an umbrella organization consisting of nearly 500 groups of community members, workers, and supporters as well as family and friends of Seattle Children’s Hospital who donate their resources including time, talents and money into supporting the medical facility. Indeed, the guild’s programs and projects have been instrumental in the hospital’s success in the past 100 years.

The guild members deliver outstanding patient care, promote discoveries in treatments, and serve the academic medical center in several states including Washington, Montana and Idaho as well as Alaska. In fact, Seattle Children’s Hospital has been ranked as #6 of the United States’ best children’s hospitals (2015, U.S. News & World Report).
