Multnomah Athletic Foundation: Achievement Through Athletics

Founded in 1991, the Multnomah Athletic Foundation is grounded in the support of athletic participation, activities that promote discipline, leadership and skill development. Athletic participation is the heart of the Foundation.

The Multnomah Athletic Foundation focuses on community outreach. We have provided over $570,000 in community grants supporting youth sports opportunities and awarded over $1,100,000 in scholarships to student-athletes in the Portland metro area.

How communities connect is important in times like these. The Youth Grant Initiative is an opportunity for young people to come together to learn how to give back to their community through team building, philanthropy, and collaborative involvement. The students make the decision of where $5,000 should go as they navigate the landscape of grant funding to determine which non profits to support.

Know a student that will be in 7th or 8th grade this fall that might be interested in getting involved with philanthropy in their community? Send them to our website and look for application materials starting on April 1st.

Scholarship Shoutout Saturday!
Congrats to Dyllan Newville! As a member of the 2018 MAC Scholar Athlete Cohort she will be graduating this year and was recently elected as Rose Princess for Roosevelt high school! In a recent update to the foundation Dyllan stated, “As I’m balancing being varsity team captain for my track and cross country team with my duties as Rose Princess and President of Key Club at my school, I’m reminded of how you all encouraged me to be more than just an athlete but a well rounded person. You all taught me that sports are the icing on the cake of life but that the true foundation is being a good leader and person, which often shows through you performance as an athlete.”
