EDUCATIONAwarding its second two-year grant to All Hands Raised in 2013, the PGE Foundation confirmed its support of the collective impact ap-proach to closing the achievement gap in education. The All Hands Raised Cradle to Career initiative involves educators, parents, so-cial service programs, government officials and business executives from the six school districts in Multnomah County. In our enhanced support of STEM education, we awarded grants to the Salem and Portland STEM partnerships and to Oregon Tech in Wilsonville for scholarships.

PCC CONNECTIn 2013, the PGE Foundation continued its support of Portland Community College’s Future Connect program. Students from low-income families, students of color and those who would be the first in their family to attend college receive scholarships, a mentor, workshops and classes that ensure their academic success. Our grant helped expand the Future Connect program into Washington County.

In 2013, the PGE Foundation intensified its efforts in education transformation from cradle to career. We increased our support of

science, technology, engineering, arts and math (STEAM) programs and scholarships that lead to family wage jobs. In the Safe and Healthy Families category, we initiated a focus on prevention programs that attack hunger, homelessness, healthcare and domestic violence issues before they even start.

We’re happy to report that granting surpassed the $1 million mark in 2013. Grants supporting communities of color increased to 46% of dollars distributed by the foundation.

SAFE & HEALTHY FAMILIESIn 2013, the PGE Foundation turned its focus to prevention pro-grams. Our efforts in hunger included grants to farming and garden projects at Friends of Zenger Farm, Growing Gardens, Portland Fruit Tree Project and the Oregon Food Bank. Four of our five grants in domestic violence taught youth how to avoid and prevent violence. Our two-year grant to LifeWorks helped them build a new facility for Project Network, a culturally focused residential drug and alcohol treatment program for women and their children.
