Gold Beach Community Fund Grants

About this program

The Gold Beach Community Fund, administered by the Oregon Community Foundation and guided by a local committee, provides grants to enhance Central Curry County in six priority areas: recreational facilities, cultural enhancement, technical/vocational projects, academic/lifestyle improvements, environmental restoration, and youth-related facilities and activities. Grants typically range from $500–$2,500 and are awarded annually; applications are accepted Feb 13–Apr 1 and must be emailed by 5:00 PM on April 1 to grants@oregoncf.org, with awards announced within about 60 days. Eligible applicants are 501(c)(3) nonprofits and public entities (509(a)(1)); individuals are not eligible and ineligible expenses include endowment contributions, annual appeals, ongoing payroll, travel, office equipment, debt retirement, and operational deficits. Applications must include a project description tied to one of the six priorities, a budget, and a timeline; inquiries may be directed to Michael Oreste at moreste@oregoncf.org or (503) 944-2100.
