Now in it’s 11th year, the donations made to the Pacific NW Karting Challenge benefit several areas within Seattle Children's Hospital. From Uncompensated Care ...to research in specialized areas such as Pediatric Cardiac Care, Cancer Research and other areas of need, 24 four-member teams come together to compete in a 2-hour endurance race. They are here not only to "win" the overall event but most importantly to raise as much as possible for their chosen area within the hospital. Throughout the Challenge's 11-year history, our teams have raised close to $600,000 for the young patients and their families at Children's and we're not done yet! This year, with the energy and enthusiastic support of each racer, we have set an ambitious goal of raising $125,000 plus. .Our teams range from seasoned karting racers to novices and they all share one specific goal...to have a "BIG WIN" for the patients at Children's.
Starting in July of 2021, teams will be forming and joining us on this page...please check back often to read each teams' story and make a donation.
For over a 25 years, Seattle Children's Hospital has been ranked as one of the best pediatric hospitals in the United States fighting relentlessly to make sure there’s no such thing as “out of options” and to make sure kids who “didn't have a chance” can have the childhoods they deserve. At Seattle Children’s, our compelling mission is: "We provide hope, care and cures to help every child live the healthiest and most fulfilling life possible." Children's delivers superior patient care, advance new discoveries and treatments through pediatric research and serves as the pediatric and adolescent academic medical center for Washington, Alaska, Montana and Idaho – the largest region of any children’s hospital in the country. Seattle Children’s was initially founded and run by a group of philanthropic women more than 115 years ago. Their generous spirit can be seen today in the support of thousands of donors and guild members, and it is their support that ultimately makes it possible to create better futures for our patients. The PNW Karting Challenge is sponsored by the Team Seattle Guild who over 24 years has raised over $6,380,000 through various motorsports road racing events for Children's.
