Our guild tree designers have outdone themselves again this year! Our unique, festive trees are now for sale to benefit families through Seattle Children's Uncompensated Care Fund as well as patients and programs at their Autism Center. Five trees have sold already, so take a look and choose your favorite before it's gone.

All trees will be displayed at the Seattle Fairmont Olympic Hotel beginning November 17, four days before the November 20 tree-lighting and gala. Each tree will feature a patient from Seattle Children's and be sponsored by one of our generous sponsors. There are still trees available to sponsor with a placard displayed on the tree at the Fairmont.

Tree-Lighting Before Gala - Come early at 4:30 pm on Saturday, November 20 for the lighting of the Fairmont Christmas tree, plus 20+ designer trees illuminated throughout the lobby. Seattle Children's patients and Santa will help bring in the holiday season.

The in-person Gala dinner and auction will include a gourmet menu, silent and live auctions, and dancing and dessert with the hot Seattle band, Sway. All proceeds will help families at Seattle Children's through their uncompensated care fund and autism center. Tickets are available now.

Welcome New Sponsors! We are thrilled to welcome our newest sponsor, Hansen Bros. Moving & Storage, a century-old local, family company. And we are welcoming back the Lynn & Bruce Gibson Family Foundation as a generous Platinum sponsor.

Silent auction items, raffles, and trees will be part of the event before and after the live auction. There will be no charge to register for the online event. 

Our guild members are working hard in several ways to create a unique, special experience while raising funds to continue to help the families at Seattle Children's and the Autism Center.
