Confluence Health and Wenatchee Valley Medical Group believe in community and support a variety of causes and organizations in Chelan, Douglas, Grant, and Okanogan counties each year. The Community Partnership Fund, managed by the Community Foundation, aims to award up to $500,000 each year in grants that:

  • Focus on Health and Wellness, Education, and Arts and Culture.
  • Promote education, especially events targeting math and science education.
  • Have a significant benefit to the community.
  • Drive positive economic impact in our community.

Eligibility

  • Applicants must be 501(c)(3) non-profit organizations* (or fiscally sponsored), public agencies, and schools serving Chelan, Douglas, Grant, or Okanogan counties.
  • Organizations are limited to one grant proposal for consideration per grant cycle.
  • For public schools, applications are limited to one grant proposal per school building and one grant proposal for a district-wide request. Private schools are not eligible.
  • Churches and faith based organizations, even for non-religious purposes, are not eligible for this grant program.

Examples of requests that have been declined in the past:

The Community Partnership Fund Committee will review and determine awards, which will range between $1,000 – $15,000 and be disbursed in September.

Aero Methow Rescue Service

GRANT RECIPIENT

Due to being rural, remote, and geographically isolated, we must be prepared to do more than respond to emergencies. We have become a healthcare partner who fills gaps in service. The grant allowed our board the time and ability to work with a Strategic Planner to modify our plan to address those gaps.

The grant provided funds to hire a Housing Justice and Outreach Coordinator to visit rural and underserved areas. Rosie’s bilingual and bicultural skills and experience have increased equity of service.

Scholarship Recipient

My father was a migrant agricultural worker who eventually started his own cherry and apple orchard. He told me if I wanted to live a better life, I had to get an education. I plan on starting a career with the Chelan PUD with a passion for renewable energy and in turn give back to my parents and community for supporting my dreams.
