We need you. Host a holiday drive!
Will your business, organization, or group host a holiday drive to support foster youth?
Throughout the holiday season, we will reach hundreds of youth in foster care and provide over 500 teen gifts. We need support to stock our store with all the items foster youth need to have a happy holiday.
We can help you get everything set up, and have items needed at various price points, starting at $5.
Interested? Contact Gail at gail@projectlemonadepdx.org.
