Nike Employee Grant Fund
The Nike Employee Grant Fund was established at The Oregon Community Foundation in 2010. Through this fund, Nike employees will work with OCF to award $500,000 per year to local nonprofits.
This is Nike's "backyard" program, engaging employees in aiding nonprofits in communities where local Nike employees live – Clackamas, Columbia, Multnomah, Washington and Yamhill counties in Oregon and Clark County in Washington. Grants will be one-year awards, generally between $5,000 and $20,000.
Most grants will be awarded through the lens of sport, for projects that use sport or physical activity to leverage other community benefits, but some grants will be awarded for projects that address broader family and children's issues.
