Meet the Funders Breakfast 2014

7:30 am - Noon at Tuality Health Education Center

Please join us on October 8 for our Annual "Meet the Funders Breakfast," an exciting morning of roundtable discussions with some of the Region's largest funders. 

This year's event will not feature the typical Keynote speaker, but instead an interactive workshop focused on crafting strong project concepts in minutes, not hours - and quickly turning good ideas into proposals that win funding. Also, based on last year's feedback we have also incorporated networking into this year's event.

Confirmed Funders: New Seasons, Intel, Kaiser Permanente, Pacific Continental, McDonald Jacobs, Bank of America, NW Health Foundation, Juan Young Trust, Meyer Memorial, OCF, Collins Foundation, Kinsman Foundation, PGE Foundation, Metro, Metro’s Regional Travel Options, Vibrant Village Foundation, The Reser Family Foundation.
