The Seattle Times Giving Guide will be published twice this year:
Published in print and online, this information is highly useful to Times readers as they determine where to place their charitable donations. This is your opportunity to tell your organization's story of impact to these readers throughout the Puget Sound region.
Look through their discounted advertising options to see which ones fit your budget and fundraising goals. The GiveBIG content package deadline is March 6 and the print & display ad deadline is March 26.

Stories are the currency of connection, making storytelling an indispensable skill for modern leaders. This interactive and reflective session is designed to lay the groundwork for transformative conversations that foster better relationships, leading to a community of loyal stakeholders.
Social media that uses our overall theme "get that giving feeling" and links to your profile page will be more effective at encouraing donations if you tell a story that illustrates the impact your organization is having. We are happy to help you get that story out to new audiences by including your high quality image and short impact statement in the overall campaign social media portion of the Washington Gives marketing campaign.
Help us help you by filling out this short form for the chance to be featured on the Washington Gives social media channels or with our media partners.
Organizations that add a goal tend to raise more money than those that don't. After all, who would want to support a nonprofit that doesn't seem to be trying to achieve anything? Read our guidance on how to add a goal and progress bar to your organizational profile page.
