The Office for Research Advancement has opened a limited submission competition for applications to the Meyer Memorial Trust Summer 2025 funding opportunity, which will support projects up to $200,000, with the average award estimated at $100,000.

Meyer Memorial Trust has four focus areas for funding:

• Our Collective Prosperity, with a focus on community-driven work that targets the root causes of economic injustice.
• Our Empowered Youth, with a focus on community organizing that ensures Oregon’s children have access to a fully resourced education.
• Our Resilient Places, with a focus on working with frontline communities to sharpen advocacy and leadership skills.
• Together We Rise, with a focus on supporting movement builders, working outside of the previous three portfolio issue areas.
