OCF Joseph E. Weston Public Foundation
Joseph E. Weston established the OCF Joseph E. Weston Public Foundation in 1991. A nine-member board of trustees governs the foundation and awards grants for charitable purposes in the state of Oregon.
The Weston Foundation recently created a new grant application which you can find here. The application window will be open from July 1 through September 1 on an annual basis. Submitted applications will be reviewed in the fall and board decisions will be made in early December. Applications submitted outside of this window will not be considered for funding, unless invited by board members or OCF staff.
Important Note: All applicants must read and review the newly designed OCF Joseph E. Weston Public Foundation Grant Application Packet which can be found here. Please do not submit your application without reviewing the packet.
The Foundation does not require renewal application or funding request letters on a yearly basis
