Winter Wonderland is a Silent and Oral Auction/Dinner.

Date: November 3rd at Valley River Inn

 

In 2010 over 200 people attended! We hope to have 300+ this year!

 

This event is critical to the overall support of our programs.
 

We would love to have your contributions for our Wine Wall and/or Dessert Dash for the event. We have already begun to plan and collect.

Policy Expert: Do you love to read policy? We can use you! We need several folks that are willing to spend time reading and understanding the policies of different states and nationally, and convert them to a format (how-to, webinar, cheat sheet) that we can use to educate our staff and families as well as use on our website. This is a role that we can direct you to sites to find policy and procedure information, it can be done from anywhere, with as many hours a week as you have to give.

 

Support Group Needs Help with Kids: We need one or two volunteers that would commit to spending time with the kids while their foster parents attend a support meeting. It would be ideal to have college-aged volunteers who are willing to play with and support these kids. The meetings are generally two hours and are on every other Thursday evening.

 

Heart Gallery Venue Volunteers (State-wide): Would you enjoy driving around town and spending just a few hours a month going to our venues and swapping out photographs of children? You may have seen these around the area (if you reside in Oregon). We display photos of available and waiting children with bio information in restaurants, doctors and dentist's offices, airports, grocery stores and the like. All photos and needs are supplied by our organization. This basically consists of picking up your new photos, going to the venue and updating the displays.
