The grants were among the $110,000 were awarded to 24 schools in across Oregon and S.W. Washington. "These grants will surely be felt by hundreds of high risk and low- and moderate-income students in the region," Beato said.
The donations support a wide variety of academic, arts, diversity, technology and physical fitness programs and equipment in 19 rural and urban cities. The 24 grants ranged from $500 to $9,500, based on the scope and costs associated with the project or program seeking funds
Portland Opportunities Industrialization Center/Rosemary Anderson High School received $7,500 to support a nutritional lunch and breakfast program, create training programs and support student-operated social enterprise/apprenticeship projects for food manufacturing and STEM careers.
Harrison Park School was awarded $4,000 to provide financial support for school functions, including a multi-cultural fair, field trips and behavior incentives for students. Then, $3,700 went to Lincoln Park Elementary to pay for a week-long artist residency. The artist will work with the youths to create a colorful mural that reflects the diversity of the student population. Another $2,000 was given to Madison High School to provide transportation for future first-generation college students to visit campuses outside the Portland area.
Cedar Park Middle School also got $1,000 to purchase culturally-relevant books for the after-school Unity Club program. The club is a safe space for all students especially LGBTQ+ students, students of color, and their allies -- to create an inclusive and supportive environment.
Through their fourth annual "Take It To the Court for Education" program, the Trail Blazers Foundation and Wells Fargo distributed the grants during a special reception last Saturday, March 17, at the Moda Center in Portland.
Teachers, school staff, administrators, parents and community members had submitted more than 300 applications in pursuit of grants for their local schools. A committee of community leaders managed the review process to determine this year's winners.
The Trail Blazers Foundation and Wells Fargo have awarded $385,000 in grants to 73 deserving schools in this region over the past four years through the "Take It To the Court For Education" program.
