The Cultural Coalition of Washington County was created by the Board of County Commissioners for the purpose of distributing funds from the Oregon Cultural Trust to address the priorities of the Washington County Cultural Plan. The CCWC serves as an advisory body to the Board of County Commissioners to promote the cultural identity, quality of life and economic vitality of Washington County and its arts, heritage and humanities organizations.

For the fiscal year 2010 – July 1, 2009 through June 30, 2010 the amount given by each city in Washington County is below.  Wouldn’t it be great to boost donations in every single Washington County city and town this year?  That, of course, would mean we’d have a lot more money for Washington County grants next year. Let see what you can do Washington County! The Portland numbers are Washington County residents that have a Portland address.

It is the great pleasure of the volunteers on the board of the CCWC to read  grants and distribute money for Arts, Culture and the Humanities.  Many organizations are eligible for grants, see the guidelines to see if your projects qualify. You do not need to be a non-profit to receive a grant from the CCWC.
