Central Oregon Health Council (COHC) is dedicated to improving the health of our community through increasing quality, reliability, availability, and continuity of health care and reducing the cost of health care in the region. FAN received a $30,000 grant from COHC for the 2020 Community Health Projects grant cycle. This partnership will address poverty for Central Oregon families by providing basic resources, such as food, clothing and shelter, for FAN families.

With a passion for enriching lives in Central Oregon, the Roundhouse Foundation awarded FAN with a $10,000 grant to help FAN advocates in Deschutes, Crook, and Jefferson counties connect disadvantaged children and their families to vital resources. These funds will connect children to rent assistance, clothing, food, healthcare, and much more.

FAN received a $25,000 grant from Tykeson Family Foundation for the COVID-19 Relief Fund. This incredible grant allows FAN advocates to assist Central Oregon kids and their families that have been directly impacted by the pandemic. The COVID-19 Relief Fund supports families through food, housing assistance, school supplies, and various other basic needs while the pandemic persists.

At the recommendation of First Interstate Bank’s Redmond branch, FAN received two grants from the First Interstate Foundation. Driven by a vested interest in the health and strength of their communities, a $5,000 grant will directly help families affected by the COVID-19 pandemic by helping connect local families to basic needs including food, utility assistance, transportation, and rental assistance. A $2,500 grant will assist children and their families experiencing poverty in Redmond and will ensure access to food, clothing, rent relief, and more. Thank you, First Interstate Foundation!
