The City of Corvallis is committed to helping serve the most vulnerable populations in our community with the allocation of the Social Services Grant Fund. Every year, these funds make immeasurable differences in the lives of families and individuals who are experiencing houselessness, are at risk of houselessness, or are extremely low to low income households.
Empowerment Grants help individuals and organizations work together to accomplish common goals that support the overall health, vitality and inclusivity of the place they call "home." The City of Corvallis offers these grants to applicants who can demonstrate support through cash, in-kind donation, and volunteer hours.
