WELCOMING, EMPOWERING, SAFE HABITATION INITIATIVE WITH NEIGHBORHOOD ENGAGEMENT
WeShine designs, builds, and operates neighborhood-based micro villages that provide safe, transitional shelter with wrap-around services for Portland’s underserved, unsheltered adults as they prepare to become successful tenants in permanent, affordable housing.
We are delighted to now be serving 30 unhoused neighbors in 3 separate villages in PDX! Our villagers meet every Thursday evening for their Village Council Meetings with staff and they get to enjoy a home cooked meal delivered to them by lovely volunteers like you! It’s a feel good win/win moment for all and you get to make a meaningful local difference!
We require an Oregon Food Handlers Card! We can provide the link in our @evite sign up sheets! Email nancy@weshinepdx.org for the links to sign up and more info OR text 971-610-9524!

We are grateful for @multco_johs for the hard work they have done in creating this dashboard for the data on homelessness in Multnomah County. While the numbers are dire we are not discouraged. WeShine is close to now sheltering 30 individuals with the opening of our third village, St. Andrew’s Village in north Portland.

Hurray! Today we loaded a U-Haul truck with “Move Out Kits” for our villagers for when they move into housing! Each kit contains 8 boxes full of household goods everyone needs to set up a new home! These kits were donated by the lovely folks at @assistanceleaguegpdx !! We love community partners and volunteers who care about our unhoused neighbors!
