The ORPIB Foundation is excited to be in the midst of our first year as a fully funded, fully operational entity. Formed in 2023 out of the ORPIB Chamber of Commerce, this 501(c)3 nonprofit exists to promote growth and sustainability for the LGBTQ+ business community in Oregon and SW Washington.

The ORPIB Foundation is thrilled about the success of our recently re-launched Mentorship Program! The current 2025 session kicked-off on May 27th and will run through February of 2026 and consists of a diverse group of business owners and leaders at varying stages of their entrepreneurial journey. The 2026 session will start accepting applications later this Fall for mentees and mentors.
