SVP Portland addresses community challenges through investment in nonprofits.

08/25/2026

We’re still glowing from our Annual Summer Social! It was an evening full of meaningful conversation, connection, and inspiration among our SVP Portland community.

A highlight of the evening was celebrating Sudarshan Cadambi as the recipient of our 2026 Sarah Cohen-Doherty Community Impact Award. It was especially meaningful to share this moment with Jerry Cohen, Sarah's father.

We were also thrilled to welcome colleagues from Social Venture Partners International who joined us for the celebration. Thank you for making the trip and being part of such a special evening! Grateful for this community and everyone who makes this work possible.

After taking time to care for her young son, Lucia was ready to return to work—but finding the right opportunity wasn’t easy. That's when a friend told her about West Side Works.

Through the program, she gained hands‑on experience, built new skills, and found the flexibility she needed. Today, she’s working at a Beaverton preschool and building a career she’s proud of.

Lucia’s success is made possible by support from City of Beaverton Mayor Lacey Beaty, who is committed to expanding access to quality jobs and ensuring childcare is available and accessible for working families. With support from the Mayor, the United States Conference of Mayors paid for Lucia’s internship.

West Side Works is a collaboration between Worksystems, Washington County, Oregon, the Beaverton City Government, and Portland Community College. It creates opportunity on both sides of the workforce equation, placing low-income residents into paid internships in preschool centers, helping jobseekers launch meaningful careers and preschools address critical staffing shortages.

Thanks to a grant from the United States Conference of Mayors, an additional early learning work experience was made possible through West Side Works. These paid internships help residents gain hands‑on experience, build skills, and move toward long‑term careers in childcare—while helping preschool providers fill staffing shortages.

Huge shout-out to City of Beaverton Mayor Lacey Beaty, whose commitment to keeping childcare capacity aligned with growing demand is a key driver of this program’s success.

We’re grateful to the United States Conference of Mayors for investing in early learning and the workforce that makes it possible.
