Evergreen partners with Project Youth+ and celebrates Grand Opening

Evergreen is pleased to partner with Project Youth+ (formerly College Dreams). By removing barriers and increasing opportunities for low-income, at-risk, and first-generation college students, Project Youth+ is able to help career-seeking youth reach their goals. Programs include support for both college and workforce development training. 

In support of Project Youth+, Evergreen donated $30,000 towards the remodel of their new building located at 789 NE 7th Street in Grants Pass. Executive Director Kurt Hildebrand said moving out of the tiny office Project Youth+ used to inhabit will open doors for new possibilities.

In recognition of Evergreen's donation, Project Youth+ has named their meeting room "The Evergreen Federal Bank Conference Room." Designed to make you feel like you are meeting in an Evergreen Forest, the room provides a tranquil atmosphere that is well equipped to host meetings and important gatherings.
