12,160. That’s how many pounds of food volunteers recently packed into 640 boxes for families in need. Nearly two dozen digital marketers from Lake Oswego-based Logical Position helped pack the boxes for the Portland Police Bureau’s Sunshine Division — a program that’s been providing food and clothing in the metro area since 1923.
There are multiple ways to lend a helping hand at the Sunshine Division’s facility in Wilsonville, like packing food boxes with a group or sorting food donations for distribution. Businesses, schools, clubs, churches, and other organizations can host food drives as well.
We also put together a list of 41 local volunteer opportunities
