Our Purpose
-
Education
We aim to educate Portland-area nonprofits about the rich tapestry of social service providers and government agencies offering resources in our community.

Networking
Nonprofits and government agencies who work in the same arenas don’t get enough chances to connect. By introducing community members we can all make a greater impact.
-
Collaboration
We say it again and again: we’re better together. By collaborating on comprehensive, one-stop-shop events, we can better support our community in need.

A more equitable and healthier future for our greater Portland community.
