The Seattle Industry Foundation exists to support transportation and education activities that help support the continued viability of industrial business operations in greater Seattle. The long term health of the industrial community is threatened by the failure of government to provide adequate transportation infrastructure and inadequate public transit services. Industrial businesses also face a growing challenge in finding qualified workers because of the failure of the public school system to adequately inform students about the high-wage career opportunities that exist in industrial employment sectors. The goal of the Seattle Industry Foundation is to raise funds to support activities that help to address these transportation and education issues.

Names, privacy, and removal requests More

The names, titles, and compensation shown on this page are reproduced from IRS Form 990 filings, which are public records.

Philanthropy.org does not alter the content of those filings. All information appears exactly as reported by the filing organization for the tax year shown.

We publish only information contained in the public IRS filing — and less than the filing contains. Our profile pages do not display street addresses, telephone numbers, personal email addresses, or other personal contact information, even where the filing includes them.

Many people share the same name. A name shown on this page reflects only what one organization reported in one IRS filing for one tax year. It should not be interpreted as identifying any other individual with the same or a similar name.

If you are no longer affiliated with the organization, your name will generally stop appearing in future IRS filings once the organization no longer reports you. Pages for tax years in which you were reported remain published because those filings remain part of the public record.

Philanthropy.org does not alter or remove IRS filing records. Removing a page from this website would not remove the underlying IRS filing, which remains publicly available from the IRS and other publishers of the same information.

If you believe the IRS filing itself is inaccurate, corrections must be made by the filing organization or the IRS directly.
