No one gift does it alone. That’s the point.
The magic happens when we come together.
Your generosity helps create opportunities for young people to step onto the field, pursue an education, find belonging, and build confidence. Thank you for showing what’s possible when a community comes together to support others.

You gave more than a gift. You gave possibility.

Thank you to every MAC member and donor who supported the Annual Fund Drive and the Multnomah Athletic Foundation.

Every gift, large or small, adds up to something bigger. Together, your generosity helps young people play, learn, connect, belong, and see new possibilities for their future.
That’s the power of a community that stands behind its young people.

Thank you for being part of it.

Because when hundreds of people come together, small gifts become something powerful.
They become a kid stepping onto the field for the first time. A student knowing someone believed in them. A family finding connection and belonging. A neighborhood nonprofit creating a safe place for kids to grow.

Thank you to everyone who gave to the MAC Annual Fund Drive and helped power the Multnomah Athletic Foundation. Your generosity creates access, belonging, and opportunity.

Together, you’re changing everything. This is what collective impact looks like.

Back to school season is here!
As students head back into classrooms, we’re wishing them a safe and successful year, and reminding our community to keep safety top of mind:
🚸 Slow down in school zones
🛑 Watch for crosswalks and crossing guards
🚦 Stay alert during pick-up and drop-off times

Together, we can help create a safe journey for every student. 💛

We’re celebrating the moments of joy, growth, and resilience happening across our community—students stepping up, volunteers giving their time, and organizations creating impact. We are highlighting the Aspen Institute’s Project Play “Square the Pyramid” framework.

Project Play is a national movement that focuses on helping kids be active for life by building a stronger foundation for youth sports. It calls for “squaring the pyramid”—expanding access at the base (physical literacy and recreational play) so more kids can move into sports programs at all levels, and fewer are pushed out too soon.

This matters because kids who have consistent access to play and sports gain confidence, community, and lifelong healthy habits. It’s the kind of positive, upstream change that strengthens entire communities.
