ROSE FESTIVAL GIVES GRANTS

The Portland Rose Festival Foundation’s small grants program was able to provide grant awards to help four worthy projects in 2016:

Vietnamese Community of Oregon - This strong all-volunteer organization sought support to find and fund a location to build its community-built Grand Floral Parade float, which presents the culture of Vietnam and its people in the parade’s International section.

Spokane Lilac Festival - This volunteer-driven community event in Eastern Washington sought support to refurbish and improve the floral quality of its traveling float, which was part of our Mini-Float program in the Grand Floral Parade.

Portland Laughter Clubs - What started as the Hawthorne Laughter Club, a marching group entry in the Starlight Parade, grew to include clubs and neighborhoods across the Portland-metro area. Funds were sought to enlarge and enhance this group’s Starlight Parade entry, which brings the power of laughter to the streets of Portland.

Roosevelt High School Dance Team - The dance team at Roosevelt High was in desperate need of uniforms to boost their confidence and improve their standings at competitions and in public appearances. The team raised nearly all of the funds needed themselves and sought the small remaining balance to their goal from PRFF.

ESSENTIAL CELEBRATION

In 2016, the Rose Festival launched a movement centered around the fact that events aren’t just special, they’re essential. The Essential Celebration campaign reminds people it is important to our culture and our community to come together for a common purpose: to celebrate. This message was shared through television spots on the Rose Festival’s Official Station (KPTV Fox 12 Oregon) and globally through the International Festivals and Events Association (IFEA), where events from around the globe have picked it up and run with it to raise awareness in their own communities. We are proud to be the leaders in developing this positive campaign reminding people that #EventsAreEssential!

THE ROSE FESTIVAL MAKES THE PORTLAND REGION A BETTER PLACE TO LIVE AND VISIT.
