THE PRIMARY MISSION OF SVP PORTLAND IS TO PROVIDE CAPACITY-BUILDING SUPPORT TO THE NONPROFIT GRANTEES WE CALL COMMUNITY PARTNERS. IN 2020, THE PARTNERSHIP OF 120+ INDIVIDUALS INVESTED MORE THAN $200,000 IN CASH GRANTS AND 6,700 HOURS OF PROFESSIONAL EXPERTISE (CONSERVATIVELY VALUED AT $670,000). TOGETHER, THESE REPRESENT A VALUE OF MORE THAN $870,000 OF COMMUNITY INVESTMENTS INTO A PORTFOLIO OF 12 NONPROFIT ORGANIZATIONS AND COLLABORATIVE PROJECTS THAT ARE FOCUSED ON ENSURING THAT ALL CHILDREN REGARDLESS OF ETHNICITY, WEALTH, RELIGION, GENDER, OR ZIP CODE HAVE ACCESS TO HIGH-QUALITY, CULTURALLY-RELEVANT EARLY LEARNING EXPERIENCES.

SVP PORTLAND PROVIDED GRANT FUNDING TO THE EQUITY COLLABORATIVE AND SERVES AS ITS FISCAL MANAGER AND LEAD CAPACITY BUILDER.

CHILD CARE SHARED SERVICES ALLIANCE - IN RESPONSE TO THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC AND THE MASSIVE DISRUPTIONS CHILD CARE PROVIDERS IN OREGON ENDURED TO THEIR BUSINESSES AND LIVELIHOOD, SVP PORTLAND WORKED WITH PARTNERS IN THE EARLY EDUCATION COMMUNITY AND THE OREGON COMMUNITY FOUNDATION (OCF) TO DESIGN A STATEWIDE PILOT FOR A CHILD CARE SHARED SERVICES ALLIANCE (CCSSA). THE FORMATION OF A CCSSA WILL ENABLE CHILDCARE PROVIDERS TO SHARE ADMINISTRATIVE COSTS, BUILD AND SUSTAIN STRONG ORGANIZATIONS THAT ARE ABLE TO FOCUS ON THEIR MISSION, CREATE POSITIVE WORK ENVIRONMENTS AND GROWTH OPPORTUNITIES FOR STAFF, AND OFFER HIGH-QUALITY EARLY LEARNING SERVICES. WE CONVENED A GROUP OF TWELVE CHILDCARE PROFESSIONALS FROM ACROSS THE STATE TO DESIGN WHAT THE PROGRAM SHOULD LOOK LIKE, WITH PERSPECTIVES FROM DIFFERENT GEOGRAPHIC, ETHNIC, AND RACIAL BACKGROUNDS. AFTER TEN MEETINGS, THIS GROUP PRODUCED A RECOMMENDATION TO OCF FOR A 2021 PILOT PROGRAM.
