Over 30 years ago, we began showing up each month with warm, home-cooked meals for men experiencing homelessness through Transition Projects, Oregon’s largest shelter provider. This tradition—complete with all the trimmings—has become a touchstone of connection and care. We’re proud to be one of their longest-standing partners, consistently receiving heartfelt appreciation from those we serve.

For more than a decade, we’ve supported the West Linn Food Pantry, which serves 300–400 people weekly with groceries and basic essentials. As a steady drop-off site for items like shampoo, diapers, and toothpaste, we respond directly to evolving needs with dignity and compassion.

Each holiday season, we partner with schools and Head Start programs to bring warmth and wonder to children in families navigating illness, job loss, or financial hardship. What began as a small gift drive has grown into a community-wide celebration—providing toys, coats, pajamas, books, games, and more to 60–75 children each year. It’s a day filled with joy, gratitude, and the powerful reminder that no one is alone.

Our Circulation Day is a celebration of generosity, where community members bring new items to share freely. The result is an atmosphere of abundance and joy—reminding us that when we give freely, we all receive.

Our spaces have long been home to classes and workshops that nourish the heart, mind, and spirit—from yoga and meditation to nonviolent communication, parenting support, Reiki, and journaling. These offerings help individuals reconnect with themselves and one another in meaningful ways.

Over the years, we’ve hosted inspiring figures who have touched hearts and sparked change—most notably Arun Gandhi, grandson of Mahatma Gandhi, who shared timeless lessons of kindness and nonviolence with thousands across schools and community gatherings.
