Launched on May 27, 2020, by nonprofits, community leaders, businesses, and philanthropies across Washington state, All In WA is a coordinated, statewide relief effort that will support workers and families who have been acutely affected by the COVID-19 crisis. To date, the unprecedented giving effort has pledged more than $45 million toward a $65 million long term goal.
As part of the fundraising effort, Amazon founder and CEO Jeff Bezos is matching individual donations under $1 million to All In WA causes, up to a total of $25 million. Additionally, an alliance of Black women leaders announced the launch of the Black Future Co-op Fund, a first-of-its-kind fund to support the Black community in Washington state. With $2.5 million in committed donations, which are eligible for the match, the Black Future Co-op Fund aims to respond to the disproportionate impacts of COVID-19 due to overwhelming system failure and structural racism. Housed at Seattle Foundation, the Fund will invest in housing, health, education and more across the Black community in Washington state.
Presenting Sponsor of All In WA: A Concert for COVID-19 Relief, Amazon, has donated more than $10 million in cash and in-kind benefits. Microsoft, a Community Leadership Sponsor, has donated $2.5 million in cash directly to the relief funds. Additional Sponsors include Laird Norton Family Enterprise, Seattle Genetics, Puget Sound Energy, Avista, Madrona Venture Group, Premera Blue Cross, Russell Investments, Nordstrom, and Zillow Group.
All In WA is being managed by a powerful and diverse network of leaders and community foundations across the state.
All In WA: A Concert for COVID-19 Relief is executive produced by a team led by Washingtonians Jason Koenig and Jenny Koenig, Anonymous Content’s Bedonna Smith and Nina Soriano and David Jammy, Melanie Fletcher and Nikki Varhely Gillingham for Done + Dusted.
