We are pleased to share that in Q1 2024,
Trustees approved 96 grants totaling $16.9 million to nonprofit organizations across the Pacific Northwest. #
While we are in our own season of updating systems and strategies, nonprofits throughout our region are in periods of critical capacity-building too. Facility renovations for health clinics, new key staff for conservation groups, arts programs reaching new audiences, research partnerships between institutions and high schools, mental health initiatives across states, new support for job training services — these are just a sampling of the ways nonprofits are strengthening pathways to transformation for everyone in our region. This report is a small acknowledgement of this work, and a chance to say thank you for letting us partner with you in it.
A full list of this quarter’s grants can be found at the bottom of this page.
