Celebrate the 4th by sharing with Oregon troops overseas
The Multnomah Dems, in coordination with the DPO, NW Portland Ministries, and the good folks at Gallagher Plaza are gathering goods and goodies to send to Oregonians serving abroad.
If you're having a 4th of July party, have your guests bring an item or 2. If you're attending a party, pass this on to your host. What to bring -- new or used CDs, magazines, paperback books. Also hard candy, toothbrushes and personal hygiene items are handed out to the local children. Use your IMAGINATION! Nothing is discarded: everything is used. Do not include items that will melt or spoil in the 7 to 10 days it takes to get to the soldiers.
Even if you're not going to a party, please donate an item or two... Items can be dropped off at the Mult Dems office, 3127 NE 67th (call first for hours 503-312-1970)
Other options for Pick up/drop off of items and further information: KC at chair@multdems.org
