Donation Drop Off Day

Thursday, May 17 | 4PM - 7PM
Sunnyside Centenary United Methodist
3520 SE Yamhill St. Portland, OR 97214

Donation Drop Off is held the First Thursday of each month from 11AM-2PM and on the Third Thursday from 4-7PM at Sunnyside Centenary United Methodist Church. Donors should enter the building on 35th Ave.

The generous support of community donations makes our programs possible. The current state of the economy means that costs for providing food and clothing to the survivors and their children living in our shelter have risen dramatically. If you’re interested in making a donation or hosting a donation drive at your school, office or place of worship, please check our wish lists to see what we need most!

African-American hair products (i.e. Motions, Soft sheen Carson, and Luster brand products - activating hair gel, hair relaxer, and hair grease)

Donation Drive Ideas:
Mother’s Day Gift Drive - bath and body items, chocolate, journals, candy, nail polish, etc. We have approximately 48 mothers to honor this year!

Raphael House in Top 100 Nonprofits!

We are thrilled to announce that for the 2nd year in a row, Raphael House of Portland made Oregon Business Magazine’s annual list of the 100 Best Nonprofits to Work For in Oregon! The rankings were based on the confidential input of employees who answered 60 questions about workplace satisfaction on topics such as benefits, management, trust, work environment and development. The survey was voluntary and free of charge, and independently calculated by research partners Davis, Hibbitts and Midghall. More than 200 nonprofits participated and 6,700 employees completed the survey. Rankings within the top 100 list will be announced in late September and published in the October issue of Oregon Business Magazine.

As we all know, a happy workplace leads to a staff doing the highest quality work. This news just confirms what we already knew - that Raphael House is an outstanding organization in so many different ways!
