Hey Gorge Peeps,
We're stoked for this year's La Niña winter, but we're pretty sure
Portland's homeless population doesn't share our sentiment. In the
spirit of giving this holiday season (and to appease our guilt of
wanting cold temps and massive snow dumpage) we are kicking off a week-
long Coat Drive for Portland’s Homeless this Friday, December 3rd.
Salomon Snowboards and Bonfire outerwear are partnering with us to
help collect as much outerwear as possible. Company reps and team
riders will be here this Friday, December 3rd from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m. to
host a showing of BONVOYAGE from Videograss on the 15-foot outdoor
screen as we gather around the fire. The gathering is free and open to
all. Dress warmly. It is, after all, outside – a fact befitting the
cause.
WHAT TO DONATE: Any gently used or new outerwear, including jackets,
snow pants and gloves for men, women and kids. We're collecting these
items through Saturday, December 11th. We'll be delivering the items
to local homeless shelters and temporary aide stations the following
week.
Ways we're saying THANKS for your DONATION:
1) For each item contributed you will receive a raffle ticket for a
drawing (including prizes from Salomon and Bonfire) which will take
place Saturday December 9th at 6 p.m. Winners will be announced at
here on our website.
2) You'll also be eligible to buy a $50 gift card for only $40! Keep
it yourself or give it to a friend (limit of 2 gift cards at the
discounted rate).
3) We have outerwear on sale to help you replace your donated
outerwear with something nice :-)
So PLEASE, please help out and DONATE A JACKET today...or Friday
night.....or any day up through Saturday, Dec. 11.
Board on,
Gorge Crew
