It still feels a lot like summer here in the Pacific NW, but kids will be heading back to school before you know it! The team here at Our Just Future is thinking ahead — because we want the kids living in our shelter and affordable housing communities to have the tools they need to feel prepared, comfortable, and ready to learn.
Can you help us gather the school supplies kids in our programs need? It’s so easy! You do the shopping — and we make sure each kid gets the items they need.
We created an Amazon Wishlist of items we know kids need, so you can conveniently shop & ship to us! You can also donate in person to one of our sites in East Portland or Gresham. Reach out to Kyle, our Community Engagement Manager, who can tell you where! Call/text (971) 771-5602 or email him at: volunteer@ourjustfuture.org.
PLEASE NOTE! When you shop the Amazon WishList, be sure to select “Our Just Future’s Gift Registry Address” at checkout so it reaches us! We keep the address private to protect resident safety. Thanks for understanding!
If you’re planning to shop local, here’s our list of key supplies kids need:
Thank you for helping us prepare kids in our shelters and affordable housing communities to return to school – ready to learn! It really does take a village, doesn’t it?
