SOUTH WATERFRONT
PORTLAND OREGON

Support for Neighborhood House continues in the South Waterfront. Bee Cleaners recently delivered a large shipment of clean clothing that had been donated by SW residents or, inadvertently, by people who had not picked up their cleaning in over 6 months. Bee Cleaners must regularly dispose of unclaimed clothing and have adopted Neighborhood House as a recipient of this “gift,” as a result of the SWF 20/20 Health, Wellness and Social Spaces Committee work with this charity. The Community Relations program at the Discovery Center donated $300 and individuals from SWF have donated too, increasing our total contributions to $6569, Recently some folks who led the effort to support Neighborhood House and organize the House Tour in December met at Umpqua Bank to review these activities.

SOWA event organizers and supporters celebrate their success.

Once again, we are so appreciative of the generosity of our neighbors in the SWF. To learn more about Neighborhood House programs, please go to www.nhweb.org.
