When it comes to selecting grant recipients, Northwest Children’s Fund has a hands-on approach. Twice a year, our Board, acting through its Grants Committee, evaluates grant requests from a wide variety of social service agencies. Committee members then conduct a comprehensive review, visiting each agency under consideration, seeing programs in action, and talking face-to-face with the individuals behind them.

Qualities we look for in the agencies we select:

• Financial stability
• Dedicated personnel
• Measurable results
• Innovative and effective approaches to problem solving

Here are just a few of the hard-working organizations NWCF has supported:
