Portland Shed volunteers have been building sleeping pods for our friends at WeShine. Please see their exciting update below:
To our WeShine friends and partners:
We are proud to announce and share the release of our “Voices of WeShine” video! [Voices of Weshine]
We now have a powerful visual story that we’re excited to share with our community. This video is a testament to the strengths of our Villagers’ resilience, and the cumulative work we have done since WeShine was founded three years ago.
But don’t just take our word for it – please take a moment to view the 3-minute video and discover how our collective work sustains Portland’s unsheltered adults on their path toward obtaining safe, affordable permanent housing.
We encourage you to share this video with others, as it’s a call to action to draw attention to and gain support for the ways in which we care for Portland’s underserved and marginalized houseless populations – LGBTQ+, Black, Indigenous, and People of Color, women/those who identify as female, and disabled adults.
Thank you for continuing to support our work and uplift the importance of welcoming, empowering, and safe shelter alternatives! Together, WE SHINE!
With Appreciation,
Jan McManus, LMSW
