SPOKANE, WA – Innovia Foundation is awarding $1,250,414 in grants to 113 organizations in Eastern Washington and North Idaho through its annual Community Grants Program. The grants support education and youth development, health and wellbeing, arts and culture, economic opportunity and improved quality of life.
The Community Grants Program is made possible by donors who have established funds at Innovia for the purpose of addressing critical needs and compelling opportunities in communities across the region, with input from local volunteer advisory committees. At the recommendation of those committees, the 2025 program focused on supporting the work of nonprofit organizations with a strong youth engagement component.
“For 51 years, Innovia has invested in the essential work of nonprofit organizations through its grantmaking programs. From supporting the most vulnerable to improving economic vitality to enriching our cultural landscape, nonprofits bring people and resources together to make more possible for our region,” says Innovia CEO Shelly O’Quinn. “This year, we continue that legacy by funding impactful projects across our region, including programs that engage youth in community activities, strengthen relationships, and reduce isolation.”
