Experience Boeing in Washington

Boeing in Washington

Boeing is committed to being the leader in aviation and innovation by offering airplanes and services that deliver superior safety, design and efficiency. Many of our most innovative products are designed and built here in Washington, and we owe this success in no small part to the talent and community support of people in Washington state – thank you!

The Boeing Company began in Washington more than a century ago and today we are the largest private employer in the state, with nearly half of our global workforce located in the Puget Sound. Boeing’s dedication to the region is clear with major facilities located in Everett, Renton, Auburn, Frederickson and beyond.

While Boeing is best known for our products and people, we are also keenly focused on improving the communities where our employees live and work. Through purposeful investments, employee engagement and thoughtful advocacy efforts, Boeing and our employees support innovative partnerships and programs that include improving access to education resources, workforce and skills development, and supporting our military and veteran communities.

This website is a home for stories about our commitment to this state, the environment and the good work being done every day by our hundreds of partners in the local communities around us. If you’d like to learn more, sign up here to receive periodic Boeing in Washington newsletters.

Our Community

Our past, present and future is inextricably intertwined and Boeing is committed to enhancing the Washington communities where nearly half of our employees live and work. The Boeing Company made its first charitable contribution in 1917 when a gift from William E. Boeing helped the University of Washington build the state’s first wind tunnel. More than a century later Boeing, our employees and retirees contribute more than $50 million annually to approximately 200 Washington organizations dedicated to improving the lives of people in this state. Please view these stories to learn more about some of the partnerships that Boeing and our employees are so deeply proud of.
