Keep Portland WARM
Posted On: December 10th, 2009 by James Posted In: Local Interest
I’ve recently had the opportunity to sponsor a grassroots effort to mobilize unused (meaning currently not-in-use) sweaters, hats, scarves, gloves, blankets, anything warm etc. here in the Portland metro area. My friend and client Scott Davis has started an “emergency sweater drive” inspired by the brutal and bitter chill that has taken us all by surprise.
I am making our HQ office of Mortgage Trust into a “drop point” for all of my clients and friends. There are other places to donate and other ways to get involved. I invite you to engage with us in this effort, our goal is to collect 500 items before Christmas Eve. If you are out of the area, you can feel free to mail a clothing donation to us here at Mortgage Trust. Please just send it c/o James Adair and I’ll make sure it gets to the right place. If you are in the area, please swing by our offices and bring what you can.
Scott has set up a Facebook Group page that is the main gathering point for more information about the comings and goings as this effort evolves. Please link to it, share it with your friends, try to dig out an old sweater and lets do a little something together for those who are out on the short end of this current cold spell.
Thanks.
