Foundation awards communities grants across five states

EASTERN OREGON – In the latest round of community grant funding, 77 community grants were awarded to local nonprofits across a five-state footprint totaling $305,500.  In total, the three rounds of community grants contributed $1M to community organizations across Oregon, Washington, Idaho, California, and Nevada. These nonprofits were selected from hundreds of applicants who demonstrated a steadfast commitment to serving low-to-moderate income populations in at least one of eight categories: family engagement and resiliency; financial competency; housing stability and home ownership; college, career or technical readiness; entrepreneurship and business expansion; vibrant and equitable neighborhoods; technical and digital connectivity; and small business support and financial guidance.  The nonprofits that were included in the grants in Oregon are listed below.
