The Three Rivers Foundation, established by the Confederated Tribes of Coos, Lower Umpqua, and Siuslaw Indians and the Three Rivers Casino and Hotel, aims to enhance the health and welfare of the land and people of these tribes' historical homelands, promoting projects with statewide impacts as well as those benefiting Native Americans in Oregon. It supports innovative and collaborative efforts in education, health, public safety, problem gambling, the arts, the environment, cultural activities, and historic preservation.
The broad goals of the Three Rivers Foundation grant program focus on funding projects that aim to improve, enrich, and enhance the community and environment. Specific causes supported by the grant include education, health, public safety, problem gambling, the arts, the environment, cultural activities, and historic preservation. The foundation seeks to support projects that align with at least one of these priorities, emphasizing innovation, collaboration, and grassroots efforts without prioritizing any specific initiatives to remain responsive to the evolving needs of the organizations and communities it serves.
