Join us for our annual fundraising gala, themed around the opulence and excitement of the 1920s. This year’s event promises an unforgettable night filled with live entertainment from New Orleans’ Big Easy Band, exquisite dining, craft cocktails, and the chance to make a meaningful impact on our community. Don your best flapper dress or dapper suit and get ready for a night to remember!
The Foundation has recently moved to the MASS Building. Our offices are located on the south side of the building.
Derick Hall Donation
Derick Hall, Linebacker for the Seattle Seahawks, has chosen to support our NICU Fund for his My Cause, My Cleats Campaign! He has a remarkable story of beating the odds as a premature baby in our NICU who was given a 1% chance to live. Our NICU Fund provides vital equipment and support for Memorial’s smallest patients, their parents and staff.
You can order Foundation t-shirts, cups and more on our online store! 100% of proceeds from the items will benefit Employee Crisis Fund (except for breast cancer awareness shirts). Employees can request to pick up or have courier delivery to their clinic/office location. Non-employees can coordinate a pick up time.
