NON-GRANT SUPPORT
In addition to awarding dozens of cash grants each year, the Gordon Elwood Foundation is proud to serve the Southern Oregon community with non-grant support. The goal of our non-grant support is to increase the leadership, resources, and capacity of the nonprofit sector in ways that money alone cannot.
