Children’s Home Society of Washington invests in strengthening families with $8 million gift

Children’s Home Society of Washington, one of the state’s and nation’s leading children and family organizations, announced today it has received a significant investment in its groundbreaking efforts to strengthen families.

The expansion is thanks to an $8 million donation from philanthropist MacKenzie Scott.

The unprecedented gift is the largest unrestricted donation in the 126-year history of Children’s Home Society of Washington. This contribution will help Children’s Home Society of Washington carry out its transformative work to shift government and philanthropic resources to keeping families together and to combat inequities that have been compounded by the pandemic.
