Boeing Employees Community Fund (ECF)

Amount

$5,000–$25,000 per regional chapter (most awards around $10K–$20K).

Deadlines

Vary by chapter—examples: Southern California (May 31), Washington D.C./Potomac (Aug 31). Many operate annual or semiannual cycles.

Effort & Priority

Effort: 4  |  Priority: Worth Exploring
Success: Medium.

Match

No match requirement.

Opportunity

Boeing’s employee-led ECF chapters fund local nonprofits improving community wellbeing. FOH chapters in Boeing markets (Southern California, Oklahoma, Washington, D.C., etc.) can request support for scholarships benefiting local military and first responder families. Multiple small grants can add up while establishing relationships that may lead to corporate-level invitations.

Approach

  • Empower regional FOH leaders to submit concise applications spotlighting local scholarship recipients.
  • Showcase how Boeing employees already engage with FOH (Patriot Golf, volunteerism) to strengthen the connection.
  • Coordinate calendar tracking so chapters stagger submissions and share materials.

Risks & Considerations

  • Each grant is modest; align effort accordingly and focus on chapters with active Boeing employee presence.
  • Expect local reporting requirements—designate chapter leads to handle follow-up.
