Join Us for The Benefit
for Harborview Medical Center

Individual Tickets: $250
Table for 10 people: $2,500

Thursday, November 14, 6:30 p.m.

Harborview Medical Center is one of the country’s top hospitals and is home to the nation’s leading specialists. People from across the country come to us to treat the most severe, complex injuries, as we’re the only Level I trauma and burn center within the four-state region. And we treat everyone, regardless of insurance status or income level, with the same level of world-class care.

In addition to supporting Harborview broadly, this year’s Benefit will help raise awareness of and expand our world-class Neurosciences Institute (NSI) at Harborview.

The NSI unites top researchers and physicians to offer the most advanced neurology and neurosurgery care in the region for patients with brain and nervous system disorders, including stroke, epilepsy, Parkinson’s disease, Alzheimer’s disease and headaches. But we now face a pivotal moment to meet the demand for our innovative, highly specialized services.

With your generosity at The Benefit, we can expand our neurosciences team and programs, ensuring that everyone can access state-of-the art care to have the best possible outcomes.

We invite you to join us for this inspiring evening!
