Programs & Activities

Program 1

$208K

Community partner support - engaging multiple perspectives and examining issues from different vantage points are critical to driving collective action. Through oregon partners for education justice, we convene oregonians to form a statewide network of community-based organizations, culturally specific service providers, and education advocates who are championing a racially just and community-centered education system, and also work to support a broad range of partners across oregon.

Program 2

$135K

System support - we believe that our strongest work happens when we bridge across constituencies. We collaborate with system actors and philanthropic partners in their work to center and partner with impacted communities.

Program 3

$55K

Narrative - we move beyond traditional messaging campaigns to disrupt damaging narratives and tell a more nuanced oregon story. By addressing longstanding systemic failures and uplifting the deep-rooted strengths of our children and communities, we can narrate the path to a more just future.

Program 4

$23K

Future work & partnerships - foundations for a better oregon is always seeking to learn, grow, and think about what's next for the future of oregon kids. While leaving our work open for possibilities, some of the work that we explore does not neatly fit into another category.
