Grants
 

OCF supports more than 1,600 organizations around the state each year through its grant programs. These grants are awarded by hundreds of different OCF funds. These funds have been established with a unique purpose determined by the donor. Many funds are restricted to particular areas of community need or particular organizations of interest to the donor. Donors also have established discretionary funds, which are applied by the foundation's board of directors through a competitive Community Grant process. 

Principles Guiding OCF Grantmaking

• To build an inclusive spirit of community encompassing all of Oregon's populations
• To give priority to investments that resolve problems at their source
• To bring private citizens together to address their needs and aspirations

Discrimination Policy

OCF does not discriminate on the basis of race, religion, sexual orientation, physical circumstances or national origin. Grant applicants must hold similar standards. Community Grant applications from organizations known to have discriminatory policies will not be considered.
