Thriving Entrepreneurs Grant Program
Context
OCF understands the important role that entrepreneurs play in shaping our economic and community vitality in Oregon. For over a decade, OCF has provided grants to nonprofit organizations that support entrepreneurs across the state. Entrepreneurs have big ideas and creative ways to solve problems, but they often need help developing their business plans, go-to-market strategies, recruiting talented teams or board members, and raising money. We know entrepreneurs who are women, people of color, or who live in rural communities struggle more than others to grow and scale their companies.
