Now go and do likewise

You Can become an Saturday Samaritan volunteer.  Young and old alike, from all walks of life, come together to help the people who call the streets of Portland their home.

Whether you are a great cook or willing to sous chef, and accounting wizard or an expert communicator, someone fluent in Spanish or familiar with the recovery process, a dynamite dishwasher or cupboard organizer, or just plain good with smiles, you have a talent we need.

Some of the ways Saturday Samaritans can contribute:

•  Cooking on Saturday mornings, from 8:30-12:30pm
• Serving food in inner SE Portland on Saturdays from 12:30-4:30pm
• Clean-up on Saturdays from 5-7pm
• Picking up food donations in SE Portland on Fridays
• Sorting clothing and goods donations (work parties a few times a year)
• Participating in the Saturday Street Market to distribute clothing and goods on one Saturday in the fall
• Cook and serve food at fundraisers
• Auditing or legal advising
• Grant writing
