NW Children’s Foundation has become a leading voice in child welfare – aligning resources, organizations and passionate individuals committed to ending child abuse and neglect.
It’s a complicated challenge to which we apply a simple approach: find the most effective prevention and intervention programs in our region and invest in them; seek out organizations impacting multiple points in the complex cycle of abuse and neglect and give them the resources they need to keep our children safe.
As passionate child welfare advocates, we are:
DEDICATED TO MAKING INFORMED DECISIONS
From application review to on-site program evaluations, our Board thoroughly researches and reviews grant applicants to ensure sound funding.
SUPPORTIVE OF PROVEN PROGRAMS
At NW Children’s Foundation, we’re careful about how we allocate money. We fund prevention and intervention programs that demonstrate success at breaking the cycle of child abuse and neglect.
OPEN TO NEW APPROACHES
In our evaluation of grant recipients, we’re also on the lookout for innovative programs that other funders may overlook. This enables us to support a diverse group of programs and to reach out to children and families that might otherwise fall through the cracks.
