Open Call Grant

Roundhouse Foundation focuses our work in and across four areas that are fundamental to thriving rural communities – Arts & Culture (including Historic Preservation), Education, Environmental Stewardship (including Sustainable Agriculture), and Social Services. We understand the interconnections of our focus areas and value opportunities that work at their intersections.

We are especially interested in opportunities that:

• stimulate rural economies, foster economic resilience and/or advance efforts outside of traditional economies.
• remove barriers to access services, whether real or perceived.
• bring great, new ideas at a time when Foundation support can act as a catalyst.
• engage and mobilize young people.
• engage a mix of lived experiences at every level, including across generations.
• celebrate rural landscapes.
• support sustainable food production and distribution.
• have the potential to leverage additional investment in rural Oregon.
