As a community, we strive to foster connections, engage new voices, and work to encourage remarkable individuals in activity for youth. Getting people involved around ideas and action is a priority and passion for us.
TOGETHER WE CAN…SUPPORT OPPORTUNITIES The Foundation directs seven scholarship programs, named for amazing MAC members and staff. This year, MAF is funding over $130,000 for 50 recipients. Our volunteers continue to update the criteria for selecting recipients to be relevant and responsive to our community and the world today.
TOGETHER WE CAN ... BUILD A STRONGER COMMUNITY MAF awarded over $120,000 to local nonprofits in the past year! The Foundation prioritizes being responsive to today's needs by giving our grant partners freedom in providing their outreach and services. We engage middle school students through the Youth Grant Initiative to lean into the power of their voices while making funding decisions.
TOGETHER WE CAN… CONNECT PEOPLE MAF is reaching out to include new voices and perspectives. This past year, the Foundation brought back events to gather both old and new members in our community. We continue to expand our volunteer engagement that brings together people with different ideas, backgrounds, and energy to deepen our experiences and outreach.
"We strive to provide access to athletics and education through our grants and scholarships and build a community that empowers the youth," said Sarah Burczak, board co-chair. "The work we do would not be possible without the support from MAC members.Your contribution provides hundreds of underserved youth access to opportunities and gives our nonprofit partners resources they need to serve." The Multnomah Athletic Foundation's board of directors and the MAC's board of trustees together endorse the annual fund drive in October, which fuels the foundation's ability to provide grants and scholarships.
