Community Warehouse, a non-profit that collects and redistributes furniture and household items to people in need is moving to the former location of Hanna Bea’s at 3969 Martin Luther King Jr. and Shaver Street.

To ensure that our shelves stay stocked, businesses, families, schools, and other professional and social groups throughout the metro area host collection drives for the Community Warehouse for one week in 2009. We encourage you to consider helping local families in need by agreeing to gather items for the Warehouse.

During your week, you and your group will collect needed items. Community Warehouse helps coordinate these efforts, picking up items from a central donation drop-off point, providing guidance on items needed and flyers to publicize collection efforts. For more information or to adopt a week in 2009, contact Roz, our Community Connects volunteer, at (503) 329-5588 or e-mail roz755@aol.com
