Mission and programs · 2024

Mission

TASTE for Equity brings leaders together across cultures and traditional divides to forge deeper connections and inspire action for a more equitable community. Our annual gala does this through an elevated experience that also celebrates the richness of Oregon's BIPOC and LGBTQ+ food and wine industry, honors community heroes, and provides grants to organizations serving and advocating communities of color and queer communities.

Activities or mission (Part I)

TASTE for Equity is a catalyst to experience and inspire action for a more equitable community

  • 90% of our costs to produce the Gala were paid directly to our priority populations: Black, Indigenous and other People of Color and/or LGBTQIA+ individuals, businesses and social service organizations.

    Expenses $10,528

  • We granted three organizations, ELSO, APANO, and Adelante Mujeres $25,000 each. Additionally, we granted $10,000 each to three beneficiary organizations who had been beneficiaries in the past (Latino Network, KairosPDX, and Seeding Justice), and a direct grant of $4,325 to honor land to the National Indian Child Welfare Association.

    Expenses $109,325 · Grants $109,325 · Revenue $109,325

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those.
