Earth Day Oregon will only share this information generally about the partner collective (aggregate), not specific to each organization.

Is your nonprofit a community-based organization (CBO) and/or a culturally specific organization?(Required)

“Community-Based Organization” means a Nonprofit Organization that is representative of a community or significant segments of a community, which is located within or in close proximity to the community it serves. “Culturally Specific Organization” means an organization that serves a particular cultural community and is primarily staffed and led by members of that community. These organizations demonstrate: intimate knowledge of lived experience of the community, including but not limited to the impact of structural and individual racism or discrimination on the community; knowledge of specific disparities, barriers, or challenges documented in the community and how that influences the structure of their program or service; commitment to the community’s strength-based and self-driven thriving and resilience; and ability to describe and adapt their services to the community’s cultural practices, health and safety beliefs/practices, positive cultural identity/pride, religious beliefs, etc. (Source: Oregon Dept. of Education, Ch. 581, Div. 17, Oregon Sec. of State Administrative Rules)

Is receiving a mini-grant a strong consideration for your participation in Earth Day Oregon 2023, based on your nonprofit’s size, resources, and budget?(Required)

In 2022, 35% of Nonprofit Partners had annual budgets of $250,000 or less, and 30% had budgets of $1M or more. Based on partner feedback and our goals around equity and a sustainable revenue model, for the 2023 campaign Earth Day Oregon is experimenting with need-based mini-grants for participating nonprofit partners—rather than equal distributions to all partners as we have done in the past. This will direct larger mini-grants to the smaller and less resourced nonprofits as our nonprofit partner community grows while supporting a sustainable financial model for Earth Day Oregon. Mini-grants were $500 in 2022.

By typing your full name below as your signature, you agree to the statements included in this form and to fulfill all the mentioned requirements as a Nonprofit Partner in the 2023 Earth Day Oregon campaign.
