Note: The absence of a rating does not indicate a positive or negative assessment; it only indicates that we have not yet evaluated this organization.

    Historical Ratings
    Charity Navigator's ratings previously did not consider Leadership & Adaptability, Culture & Community, or Impact & Measurement. The historic rating mainly reflects a version of today’s Accountability and Finance score. More information on our previous rating methodologies can be found on our rating methodology page.
    Rating histories are available for a growing number of rated organizations. Check back later to see if this organization has a rating history!

    The nonprofit provides evidence of investment in leadership development.
    To meet the strategic imperative of Living Our Values: Anti-Racism, Equity, Diversity & Inclusion, Seattle Children’s conducted an organization-wide leadership and workforce summit series with a focus on equity to equip our leaders with information and tools to not only commit to change, but also foster dialogue and action around anti-racism across our entire organization. Seattle Children’s will continue to listen, learn and take action to become the equitable, anti-racist organization that our patients and families, our team, and our community need and deserve. We do so with humility and optimism, believing firmly that the work we do today can lead to a more equitable tomorrow.

    The nonprofit has an opportunity to tell the story of how the organization adapted to tremendous external changes in the last year.
    In order to meet the emergent needs of our community during the pandemic, Seattle Children’s established giving opportunities focused on three major areas of need: patient emergency assistance, employee emergency assistance and COVID-19 greatest needs. Financial gifts from our donor community were used to support drive-through COVID testing, research into the impact of COVID on kids’ health and the basic needs of patient families: diapers, clothing and groceries. In addition, we brought together community partners to provide everything from grocery store gift cards for families to meals for our frontline workers. Our community came together like never before: more than 17,000 meals and snacks were donated in the first few months of the pandemic, as well as more than 40,000 masks.
