The Meyer Memorial Trust is actively seeking opportunities to make program related investments (PRIs) to strengthen and expand the impact of the Trust's work in Oregon and Clark County Washington. Program related investments are not grants. PRIs take the form of loans, loan guarantees, and equity investments that utilize capital to support a charitable project or activity. PRIs help extend the reach of the Trust's grantmaking by aiding grantees in attracting other conventional sources of capital.
MMT has made program related investments to support economic development projects, affordable housing, community facility development, environmental protection, and the arts. Nonprofit recipients have used such funds to start social business ventures, capitalize lending intermediaries, pay construction costs, buy land, and retire conventional mortgage debt.
