Mission & Focus Areas

Seattle Children’s mission is to provide hope, care and cures to help every child live the healthiest and most fulfilling life possible. Its stated focus includes pediatric care, research, education and promoting healthy communities.

The 2025 grants primarily included pediatric medical research subawards, with some support for graduate medical education, healthcare access and mental health initiatives. The recipients include universities, research institutes, hospitals and community organizations. For example, Colorado State University describes its work as supporting research and education across the Colorado State University System; the Scripps Research Institute describes its work as basic biomedical research, translation of discoveries and scientific education; and Ronald McDonald House Charities of Western Washington & Alaska describes its work as supporting families with seriously ill children.

Grantmaking

In 2025, Seattle Children’s reported 181 grants totaling $56,289,059. Grant amounts ranged from $5,326 to $15,285,396, with a median of $57,582. The largest listed award was $15,285,396 to the University of Washington, for pediatric medical research subawards and contributions supporting graduate education, healthcare access and mental health initiatives. Other large awards included $6,536,305 to Oregon Health and Science University and $2,463,219 to Colorado State University, both for pediatric medical research subawards.

The Crossett Fund supports projects intended to improve the health of infants, children and adolescents living in Southeast Alaska. Its guidelines favor prevention, collaboration, broad reach, evaluation and projects with potential to become self-sustaining. The fund does not support ongoing program operations, direct patient care or conference attendance. Applications are accepted year-round, with decisions made twice a year. The maximum award is $10,000 per application, and there is no limit on the number of applications an organization may submit. The fund prioritizes projects reaching as many Southeast Alaska children and youth as possible, programs directly benefiting Native Alaskan youth, and new programs or first-time recipients.

Seattle Children’s also lists intramural funding programs for its own investigators and staff. These include Pediatric Pilot Funds for Seattle Children’s-based investigators and a Nursing Research Grant Program for Seattle Children’s nurses; they are not described as funding opportunities for outside applicants.
