Who We Are...
We started this project 15 years ago as a High School civic's assignment. Soon, many of our classmates and friends got involved and now have over 300 members who contribute each week.
We are not a formal organization nor do we wish to be, that means EVERY DOLLAR THAT GETS DONATED GOES DIRECTLY TO THE PEOPLE IN NEED.
We are just regular people who want to make a difference in people's lives. We don't want credit or recognition instead we want to grow our group slowly. That's why we carefully choose who we invite to become a member.
Not all of us have the deep wallets needed to attend the many Gala events and charities but we've found that if we unite each week around a specific person or family in need, that each of our members only need to donate just a buck or two, (which is almost nothing) but with our combined donations we all can share in making immediate and direct assistance to people who really need it. Together, we are changing lives and making sure that people know that "Portland Has Heart"!

Our Story...
What We Believe...
We believe that the only group anyone should identify with is our "One Human Family" and the cause we believe in is "Love" which only manifests itself when put into action by the energies of compassion and empathy.
What We Do...
Each week we email our members a short list of real stories which we have confirmed are people from our community that really need our help. Once that email goes out, you have 24hrs to reply with your vote on which person or family we will feature that week. After that we create a Get Funding Page like this one, we wie immediately email the link to our members, then we all have about a week to donate. Our minimum goal every week is just $1,000 dollars, which means each of us only has to donate a couple bucks (who can't spare just a couple dollars a week?) and really make a difference in some people's lives.
Our Call To Action...
It's time to be the change we want to see in our world, it's time to show the world that "Portland Has Heart"!!!
Who We Help...
Here in Portland there are plenty of opportunities to help people in need. We have a Street Team of volunteers that actually go out searching for people and families whose lives will be most impacted by our direct and immediate contribution. We always put children as our highest priority however our project has helped many individuals of every race, ethnicity and sexual orientation
Membership is 100% FREE and just requires an email.
However we do ask you make an easy $5.00 good faith deposit. Don't worry, your good faith deposit will be refunded to you when you recieve your first campaign or you will have the option to use that as your donation. We only do this to make sure that payments process correctly and that all members are serious about their membership.
