Donations

Donations are solicited by members of the Outreach committee. This is a general list of helpful people in the area, who don't mind if we contact them again.

Restaurants

Hot Lips Pizza • 2211 SE Hawthorne • (503) 224-2069

• Like what we do, how we do it, and willing to support events. Can call within five days of upcoming event.

Assaggio • 7742 SE 13th Ave at Lambert • (503) 232-6151

• Hadn't heard of us, and prefer more notice for events, but willing to help

Thai Lahnna • 7937 SE 13th • (503) 230-0422

• Hadn't heard of us, but were happy to help; could probably call again

Grocery Stores

Peoples Co-Op • 3029 SE 21st Ave • (503) 674-2642

• Call Sarah Klein, and give a month's notice, but more than happy to help

Trader Joe's • 4715 SE 39th Ave • (503) 777-1601

• Call Haven, generally afternoons, and give slightly more than a month's notice--but happy to help if notice is given

Food Front • 2375 NW Thurman • 503-222-5658

• Krishnee is the person to talk to, and for the last event, I didn't get a chance to call them back--but the time I did call, they seemed very willing to help. Out of our area, but may be worth it.

New Seasons Market • 1954 SE Division St • (503) 445-2888 • (503) 445-3100

• Technically, this should be in the haven't called yet column, but we called the New Seasons in Sellwood, and they donated a sandwich platter, and ten pounds of salad. They did remind us that calling the Division store would be better in future. Can call within five days of event, but prefer more notice.

Bob's Red Mill • 5209 SE International Way • Milwaukie, OR 97222 • (800) 349-2173 • (503) 653-1339 (FAX)

• Yvonne is the person to talk to, and Bob's is very willing to help with food donations. The catch--it has to be something that Bob's alone produces--and Bob's is a whole grain and flower mill. Still, bulk dried fruit and nuts, popcorn, granola, soy milk powder, and bread mixes to take home and bring back--it's not a bad deal. Willing to help with five days' notice.

• Remember to fax in request on letterhead.

Organics to You • 2019 SE Belmont • (503) 236-6496

• This company delivers organic produce in the Portland area. But they generally have 'leftovers' at the end of the week, and calling a week before--and picking up on Friday--should generally get us food donations.

Non-Food

Office Max • Portland Store #445 • Southgate Center • 10319 S.E. 82nd Street • Portland, OR 97266 • (503) 788-9234

• Office Max has a quarterly charitable donation program. Full information is in the hands of Outreach. This is here mostly as a placeholder; I want to see if we get anything from the program, first.
