Lending a Hand

Lending a Hand...

In a conversation with Donna Talarski....


Donna has found a semi truck driver willing to deliver supplies from our community of Newport to the 1000 refugees due to arrive in Portland in the next few weeks. They will be staying at a moth balled high school there. (see this link for the story). She has a request into Larry Henson to use the clubhouse as a collection point for what she envisions as clothing items.

She wants to call on folks to help in her drive. We will keep the communications on the needs and progress of her effort here on the website. Many of us have expertise that can add more dimensions to this effort. It all starts with somebody and Donna has made herself it. If you can do something to help her set up this organization.. Give her a call. Maybe you could man a phone? Make calls? Pick up stuff? Write news? Donate? Maybe you have had experience with an aid agency and have advice? Maybe you are in the know with someone of influence? Maybe you are a mule like me and can help with the physical work?

Give Donna a call and volunteer. The more that step up.. the easier the task.
