Make a Difference Day

Has your neighborhood been thinking about Make a Difference Day (Oct 27)?  Did you know that $5,000 is available this year through the Statesman Journal and the Gannett Foundation?  In past years many of you have partnered with HandsOn, Neighborhood Services and City Parks to clean-up parks and schools while increasing safe, community shared spaces for neighbors to gather.  We have submitted an application, but are open to supporting more neighborhood park projects whether or not we get any money.   Please call our office at 503-588-6207 to let us know if you would like to be involved, potentially receiving a portion of grant money for your project.
