All In Washington: A Concert for COVID-19 Relief
All In WA, a coordinated, statewide relief effort launched by nonprofits, community leaders, businesses, and philanthropies across the state that support workers and families who have been acutely affected by the COVID-19 crisis, has raised $55M to date towards its $65 million goal. To continue to raise awareness of the needs of causes and communities across the state, KING 5 (NBC Seattle) will re-air All In WA: A Concert for COVID-19 Relief by Presenting Sponsor Amazon on Thursday, July 16 at 7:30 pm PT and KONG (Independent Seattle) will re-air the concert on July 18 at 8:30 pm local time. The concert originally broadcast on June 24 and brought in nearly 1 million views across Washington state with great acclaim from fans and viewers on social media.
Amazon founder and CEO Jeff Bezos will continue to match individual donations under $1 million to All In WA causes, up to a total of $25 million (i.e., a $100 contribution would be doubled, providing a total of $200 to local and state funds).
The funds were made possible by generous contributions from individuals across the state and corporate sponsors: the Microsoft Corporation, Laird Norton Company, SeattleGenetics, Avista, Madrona Venture Group, Nordstrom, Premera, Puget Sound Energy, the Seattle Seahawks Charitable Foundation, Zillow Group, BECU, JP Morgan Chase & Co, Pemco Insurance, and Russell Investments. This is in addition to generous launch commitments from the Ballmer Group, Paul G. Allen Family Foundation, Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, Howard & Sheri Schultz, Perigee Fund, Nick & Leslie Hanauer, and Jim & Jan Sinegal.
βIt has been gratifying to see the community and sponsors come together through All In WA and support individuals, families, and communities across the state. This is a long fight, and we need to continue to draw on the inspiration of those who are stepping up to support fellow Washingtonians in need during this moment,β said First Lady Trudi Inslee.
