- A note: Beginning in 2009, for 14 years, we responded to the urgent needs of folks across Portland, providing winter warmth and home-prepared food year-round to folks on the streets or living in tenuous circumstances. Our Brown Bags served thousands of healthy, home-made meals, and our Winter Warming project provided more than 10,000 hand crafted warm items to folks in need. In 2025, with support from our members and donors, our service programs will evolve and grow .
