 Key Phrases and Data Sources

Some language °Ä³¬Ö±²¥ uses may not be familiar to everyone using this tool.  Below are some definitions and details of where we get the information included:

Community Grant Application – The Community Grant program is °Ä³¬Ö±²¥â€™s largest annual grantmaking program. Nonprofits submit applications for funding twice per year, and key details are shared with donors as opportunities for funding. Details shared here are pulled directly from applications; no edits are made by °Ä³¬Ö±²¥.

Organization Profile – Through the Organization Profile, nonprofits can update °Ä³¬Ö±²¥ and our donors about current projects and who they serve.  The information provided is used directly in this tool; no edits are made by °Ä³¬Ö±²¥.

County – Currently, the county listed is where the organization is headquartered, or statewide if they serve individuals throughout Oregon.  Many organizations may serve more than one county, and future versions of this tool will reflect that.

Topic Areas – °Ä³¬Ö±²¥ currently defines our work through the 6 topic areas listed, and we do our best to accurately categorize organizations and their work:

  • Arts and Culture – includes all types of art-based programs, museums, literary arts, and cultural heritage
  • Economic Vitality – includes community development and workforce development
  • Education – includes literacy, education research and policy, out of school time programs, mentoring, and school-based programs for all ages
  • Health and Wellbeing – includes housing, mental health, physical health, domestic violence prevention, human services, and child welfare
  • Livability – includes libraries, parks and recreation, environment, civil rights, and voluntarism

The information in this tool will be updated monthly on or around the first of the month.
