In the community
Welcome to the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Center events and sponsorship page. Fred Hutch participates in various community events throughout the year that align with our organizational mission and goals.

Seattle Swim Across America
Swim Across America, Inc. (SAA) is dedicated to raising money and awareness for cancer research, prevention and treatment through swimming-related events. For 2020 the event is adapting; with the opportunity to log activity points for swimming, hiking, biking, and whatever else you like to do! Find out more information about this year’s virtual Swim Across America Coast to Coast. To date, Swim Across America contributed over $2.5 million for clinical research at Fred Hutch.
Northwest Folklife Festival
The Northwest Folklife Festival is the place to learn, to dance, to play, to try something new and to discover arts and cultures that inspire celebration of one another and our large community. The Northwest Folklife Festival celebrates the global traditions of local, independent artists and Fred Hutch is proud to sponsor the event for three years. Presenting more than 5,000 performers, the festival draws from the more than 100 cultural communities that Northwest Folklife collaborates with year-round. The festival is presented without admission charge, creating the most inclusive, wide reaching arts experience.
