Summary

This grant opportunity offers flexible support for organizations working to strengthen communities and promote positive social outcomes in a specific Pacific Northwest region. It is designed to help mission-driven groups build capacity, expand impactful programs, and address persistent challenges that affect local residents. The overall intent is to provide reliable, thoughtful funding across a range of community interests, including cultural enrichment, youth and family services, environmental stewardship, educational opportunities, and efforts that promote equity and inclusion.


The opportunity is primarily available to nonprofit organizations with established tax-exempt status and a demonstrated commitment to serving people in their communities. Small, emerging groups may also be considered when supported by a qualifying fiscal sponsor. Individuals and small businesses are generally not eligible for this type of support, as the focus remains on nonprofit work that benefits broader groups of residents rather than individual or commercial endeavors.


Funds can be used in multiple ways depending on the scale and focus of the applicant. Many recipients use awards to support ongoing operations, strengthen organizational infrastructure, develop new or expanded programs, or collaborate with other groups to address shared community priorities. Some awards are structured as general operating support, allowing organizations the flexibility to allocate funds where they are most needed, while others may support specific initiatives or thematic focus areas that align with the funder’s broad interests.


Award amounts vary based on organizational size, project scope, and the level of impact expected, with some grants providing modest project funding and others offering more substantial multi-year support. Proposal review timelines are spaced throughout the year, offering multiple opportunities to apply. Overall, this grant opportunity aims to help nonprofits deepen their impact, build strong and resilient organizations, and contribute to thriving, equitable communities within the eligible service area.
