Seattle Mariners Chief Executive Officer Howard Lincoln and wife, Grace Lincoln, will co-chair Kindering Center’s 16th Annual Auction and Gala. The event, from 5:30-11 p.m. Saturday, Nov. 7, will take place at the Grand Hyatt in downtown Seattle.

Bellevue’s Kindering is a non-profit neurodevelopmental center that provides therapies and services for infants and children who are disabled, medically fragile or vulnerable because of abuse and neglect.

“We are proud of the difference that Kindering makes in the lives of infants and children with special needs,” Howard Lincoln said.

Lincoln was the former chairman of Nintendo of America and the current Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the Seattle Mariners baseball team.

Other attendees will include Kindering’s 2005 Auction Chairs, Frank and Charlene Blethen of the Seattle Times, as well as several sports celebrities.
