How We'll Say Thanks

As a donor, you will be part of creating a world-class center to help people with multiple sclerosis live better lives. And there are other benefits as well.

Celebrate Swedish Gala & Fundraising Auction

Each year at Celebrate Swedish - our annual black-tie gala and fundraising auction - we highlight one of Swedish's fundraising projects.

At the 2012 gala, which will be held on May 12 at the Sheraton Seattle, the spotlight will be on the Swedish Multiple Sclerosis Center. The gala will be an opportunity to publicly thank and recognize the Center's leadership donors and to gain additional community support.

Swedish Founders Circle

In addition, those who make an annual donation of $10,000 or more become members of the Swedish Founders Circle, which includes a long list of benefits, such as the use of the Bentley Family Donor Lounges at the First Hill, Cherry Hill, and Issaquah campuses and invitations to special educational events.

If you'd like to meet with Kate Purcell, the Swedish Foundation's Director of Major Gifts, to talk about a significant gift or bequest, please email Kate.Purcell@Swedish.org or call 206-386-3194.
