Thanks to the PGE Foundation's Community 101 program, at least 1,000 students learned the importance of community service and how to directly affect Oregon communities through the grant-making process.
Thirty-four schools enrolled in the yearlong youth involvement and volunteer program. Participating students are making informed decisions about distributing an estimated $180,000 to nonprofit organizations throughout Oregon.
Community 101, created in 1997, is the signature program of the corporate foundation of Portland General Electric. The foundation finances 31 Community 101 programs and engages other corporations and foundations to sponsor 21 additional programs. "
