Today is Fred Hutch Giving Day!
Join us for our second annual Fred Hutch Giving Day as we go beyond what’s possible today — in cancer, infectious disease and fundamental science research — and accelerate the next generation of discoveries. It’s an incredible opportunity to come together as a Fred Hutch community and power world-changing science.
Matching Challenge Is Live Now
Thanks to the generosity of a group of dedicated Fred Hutch donors, we have a $140,000 match to multiply our collective impact and fuel innovation in cancer research. These donors are inspired by what's possible when our community comes together — and they hope you are, too.

Frequently Asked Questions
Yes! Thanks to a group of generous Fred Hutch donors, gifts made online, by mail, or over the phone from August 11 through September 16 could be matched, multiplying your impact.
Please note: The match does not apply to pledge payments, gifts made at events, or Obliteride gifts.
Absolutely. You can direct your gift to the area that matters most to you, including:
- Greatest needs at Fred Hutch
- Cancer research
- Infectious disease research
- Patient support services
You’ll see fund options when you make your gift online. You can also specify your preference when giving by mail or phone.
No. While your gift will go to the fund you choose, the matching challenge gift has been directed by the donors to go to Fred Hutch Greatest Need. Fred Hutch honors donor intent, so your gift and the matching gift may support different areas. Both will help advance life-changing research and care.
