Boxes set up on campus for donations to Portland-area refugees

A relief effort for refugees in the Portland area begins this week!

The Ecumenical Ministries of Oregon is accepting a variety of items to distribute to Muslim families in need. It is our duty to help provide relief for those in need and welcome these people to our country in any way possible. Items needed include:

  • Lamps
  • Dishes, pots, pans and silverware
  • Toiletries (soap, toothpaste, deodorant, towels, etc.)
  • Towels and washcloths
  • Bed linens, warm blankets, pillows
  • Diapers

All of these items can be dropped off either at the SpIL House or in one of the labeled boxes in the Canyon Commons. Any contributions that can be made are greatly appreciated!

If you want to know more about the effort watch this video.

If you have questions about the supply drive, contact Tania Del Real at tdelreal13@georgefox.edu or Austin Wisenbaker at awisenbaker13@georgefox.edu.
