Seahawks Summer Reading Program
This summer we invite all Junior 12s to grab a book (or 12!) and join the Seahawks Summer Reading Program! We encourage each and every Junior 12 to read at least 20 minutes a day this summer. With every 25,000 minutes that the Seahawks community reads, we will release new prizes to our readers at random, with the top overall reader at the end of the summer winning a Blitz visit to their school!
Delta Community Captain
The Seattle Seahawks and Delta Air Lines have launched a new program to recognize local individuals or organizations across the 12s community who make a difference in the categories of education, military, equity and social justice, and the environment.
Future of Football
Serve as a catalyst to drive youth aspiration to play the game of football, encourage and celebrate a broad range of local youth football communities including NFL Flag, Youth Tackle, Girls Flag Football, and High School Football.
Social Justice
Fight for racial equity and justice within our workplace and our community by addressing inequities, tackling systemic racism, removing barriers and providing access and opportunities for all people of color in the communities we serve.
Players & Legends
Create and support opportunities for our players and Legends to engage in a variety of programs, campaigns, and events through service and involvement in our local community and beyond.
Seattle Seahawks Flag Football League
NFL FLAG and the Seattle Seahawks are teaming up to kick off the Seattle Seahawks Flag Football League.
Athletes participating in the Seattle Seahawks Flag Football League will enjoy access to premier playing facilities including Virginia Mason Athletic Center and Lumen Field, exclusive Seahawks and NFL gear and apparel, and appearances from past and present Seahawks players, Seahawks Dancers and fan favorite mascots, Blitz and Boom.
Youth Achievement Center
The Seattle Seahawks have pledged to a commitment of $500,000 over 5 years to the Youth Achievement Center (YAC). Once developed it will provide housing and programming for South Seattle youth who need a safe and supportive place to call home. YAC will offer more than 45,000 square feet of housing and services to more than 100 young people. This is a project initiated by BIPOC youth in the community where it is being developed.
The Seattle Seahawks Community Engagement efforts are focused on youth empowerment, military, social justice, youth football, and non-profit organizations serving the Pacific Northwest and beyond. Due to the large volume of requests we receive annually, we only donate to charities that meet our specific guidelines.
