🩷 NEW DATE FOR PDX SAINTS LOVE PRESENTS: BBQ IN THE YARD 🩷

📌247 SE 82nd Ave, Portland, OR
🎟️ Tickets: $40 — Use promo code LoveEastPortland for 50% off! 🤑

In August 2023, our community partners at PDX Saints Love 🤝 welcomed us with open arms after we lost our previous kitchen space 🍽️. No hesitation—they stepped up and helped us get back on our feet 👣. Since then, they’ve become family 👨‍👩‍👧‍👦🫶🏽.

PDX Saints Love provides lifesaving services to anyone who walks through their doors 🚪—showers 🚿, laundry 🧺, housing support 🏠, meals 🍲, even help getting your ID back 🪪. 💛 From hot coffee ☕ to warm smiles 😊, they offer it all from the heart ❤️.

Now they need us. Nonprofits across Portland are struggling 😞, and this event is to raise funds 💸 so PDX Saints Love can keep doing what they do best: serving our community with compassion and dignity. 💖

Let’s show up for them the way PDX Saints Love always shows up for us!! ❤️‍🔥

GUERRILLA VALENTINE
Valentine’s Day is coming
Who will show me love and help me find a home?
The street has no love for someone who is homeless.
For me, it’s just another long, cold day.
Noses are red
fingers are blue
toes are getting numb
what else is new?
For couples,
the street adds several degrees of difficulty:
no privacy,
separate shelters,
no pillow to slip a valentine under,
and frozen chocolates.
This year, for Valentine’s Day,
why not conduct a guerrilla war on loneliness: let random acts of generosity break out in the streets leaving no homeless person unrecognized or unloved.
