Grant Overview
Target Outcomes for Washington State Nonprofits

Specifically, the funder seeks to support organizations driving economic and workforce advancement, promoting safe and affordable housing, and fostering communities connected through arts and culture. When evaluating proposals, the Banking Institution will focus on initiatives that demonstrate potential for lasting change in Washington's communities.
Advancing Economic Equity in Washington
To achieve its goals, the Banking Institution will prioritize projects that promote economic equity, particularly in communities of color and historically underserved populations. For instance, the Washington State Department of Commerce's efforts to increase access to capital for minority-owned businesses align with the funder's priorities. Initiatives that provide job training, career advancement opportunities, and financial literacy programs will also be considered. The funder is particularly interested in supporting organizations that serve Washington's diverse populations, including those in rural areas and communities along the Columbia River.
Building Resilient Communities through Housing and Arts
The Banking Institution also recognizes the importance of safe and affordable housing in creating thriving communities. Proposals that address housing insecurity, support first-time homebuyers through programs like the Washington State Housing Finance Commission's first-time homebuyer grants, or promote community land trusts will be given consideration. Additionally, the funder values the role that arts and culture play in fostering community cohesion and promoting social mobility. Organizations that integrate arts programming into their economic development initiatives or provide cultural enrichment opportunities for Washington's residents will be well-positioned for support.
