Winter 2019 class project
Students of the Winter 2019 class chose to work with Potluck in the Park. An all volunteer grass roots non-profit serving the Portland community since 1991. Every Sunday for nearly three decades, rain or shine, Potluck in the Park has served a hot meal to hundreds of people. As our contribution, students inquired about high need items and did a donation drive and gofundme campaign.
Items collected:
60 cup industrial/commercial rice cooker
20 (48oz) jars of peanut butter
12 jars of homemade jam from Scheden's Farm
600 period pads
600 tampons
700 liners
150 bars of soap
100 toothbrushes
50 toothpaste
140 dental floss
30 pairs of gloves
And dozens of shampoo, conditioner, lotion, deodorant, hand sanitizer, chapstick, feminine wipes, tissue and clothes.
A special thank you to Scheden's Farm for donating the delicious jam, Lori De La Paz for the amazing and generous donations of hygiene products and food supplies, to every contributor through the gofundme campaign (we raised $680) and to the Potluck in the Park staff and community for their selfless leadership, providing consistent and reliable services, and for being a source of community for so many.
