Make a donation
Equitable Giving Circle is powered by our community. With your support, we can not only sustain our direct giving, but we can expand our reach and economically empower BIPOC Portlanders.
$60 dollars feeds a family for a week.
Our CSA program has provided fresh produce, healthy proteins and pantry items to over 400 families weekly. We currently have a waiting list of BIPOC families. If just 4 people signed up for a recurring $60 donation, we continue to feed BIPOC single mothers, children, and multigenerational households.
Sign up today and ask 3 of your friends to do the same!
