Partner Agency Profile:

For kids that receive free or subsidized school lunches, summer vacation disrupts the meals that they count on receiving each school day.

 

The Project Summer: Everyone Eats program in Washington County addresses the need by providing free meals for those 18 and younger. Learn more about Project Summer.

 

 

Make Your Summer Count!

This summer we want to make it easy, fun and rewarding for youth to get involved.  So we created the Summer of Service youth program, which is open to all volunteers age 13 through 21 and is a great way to get involved, meet other young volunteers, learn about issues in your community, develop leadership skills and even win great prizes

 

Visit the Summer of Service web page to learn more about downloading a Volunteer Service Certificate, tracking the projects your participate on and more!

 

**Mark your calendar!**

Join us Saturday, June 21st for a Summer of Service celebration kick-off project at Zenger Farm!

 



Continuing our Focus On Sustainability:

This June, we will continue to highlight opportunities to help organizations in Multnomah and Washington Counties work towards a sustainable future. Help rebuild bikes. Work to preserve local wetlands. Garden against hunger. Replace pesticides with human-powered weeding in our local parks. Or volunteer at the upcoming Towards CarFree Cities Conference!

 

Whether you're interested in local foods, habitat restoration, alternative transportation, recycling, or energy efficiency, we have plenty of opportunities for you to get involved and help keep our communities green and healthy! Learn more and get involved...
