The Community Foundation of North Central Washington and Methow Valley Fund volunteers have awarded $289,000 in grants, supporting organizations that serve everything from education and housing to arts, recreation, and emergency services.

Total Impact of Grant Funding

The Methow Valley Fund and Endowment Fund were originally established in 2006 with an anonymous $20,000 donation and a matching $20,000 contribution to support local charitable organizations. Since then, the fund has awarded more than $2.2 million in grants across the Methow Valley.

“Having been an advisor to the Methow Valley Fund for over a decade, it has been very rewarding to see the growth of all nonprofits here in the valley," said advisory board member Jay Lucas.

Changes to the Application Process

Recent changes to the program have also made funding more accessible, eliminating the previous one-year waiting period between applications and allowing eligible organizations to apply annually.
