SCHNITZER CARES (formerly COMMUNICARE)
* The Harold & Arlene Schnitzer CARE Foundation believes that there should be opportunities for young people to create change. The Schnitzer Cares program provides an environment where young adults learn about the needs of their communities through grant making and thus promote a long-term understanding and ethic of philanthropy and volunteerism. By challenging students to engage in community service that is both rewarding and educational, we hope to encourage them to become active adult citizens in their communities.
RHS THEATRE SCHNITZER CARES MISSION STATEMENT
2024-2025
The Schnitzer Cares group from the Roosevelt High School Advanced Theatre class is focused on providing grants to nonprofit organizations in the city of Portland that use the arts to create safe spaces for LGBTQIA2S+ individuals struggling with mental health in our community. We believe that art programs are necessary to strengthen our neighborhoods and we hope to see more availability of spaces where people feel welcomed and a part of a community.
