The Nike Employee Grant Fund of The Oregon Community Foundation was established in 2010 and seeks to benefit communities where Nike employees live, work and play in the greater Portland area.
Administered in partnership with The Oregon Community Foundation, it awards up to $600,000 per year to local nonprofit organizations or schools that wish to join Nike in creating positive social and/or sustainable environmental change.
Starting this cycle, the grant criteria have been expanded to include sustainability, with these project guidelines:
Engage children and families in improving natural environments in their communities.
Reduce negative impact on the environment by increasing use of environmentally, socially and economically sustainable practices
The full set of guidelines and the application are available online at www.oregoncf.org/nike
This funding cycle will conclude on December 1st at 5:00 pm
