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.
To our Trans siblings, staff and villagers: We Love You! WeShine would not be WeShine without you!

We love our north Portland representative @rep.nelsonofficial AND our Executive Director @janettmcmanus and our consultants for PR and Fundraising: @e8daysawek from 360 Philanthropy and Bridget Jackson with @nexuspr_official
At WeShine we strongly believe it takes a village to build a village: strong support from local politicians to our board and from volunteers to staff and fundraising and public relations support! Thanks again to EVERYONE who supports our work and helps us grow!

Here is our wonderful Oregon Governor Tina Kotek @govtinakotek checking out one of our pods at St. Andrew’s Village! Did you know that WeShine will soon be serving 30 unhoused folks at a time? That’s right, 10 in each of our 3 villages! We believe in the micro village model because they fit neatly into cozy neighborhoods that are close to resources. Our pods are cozy too: heaters, storage, air conditioning and more! If you would like to help our mission click the link in bio to donate or check out our website to find out how to volunteer!

We keep going on about the beautiful St. Andrew’s Village but we have not shared these lovely new photos of the “undercroft” at St. Andrew’s! Beautifully remodeled to be the community space for our villagers, with kitchen, shower, bathrooms, meeting room, laundry room, community eating spaces, cozy living room! We could not have done this without our amazing volunteers and the phenomenal @homebuildersfoundation and their partners including the awesome @poicstories and @tivnu !!

It was a perfect day! Special thanks to our Governor of Oregon @govtinakotek for coming to visit her former home church. She made a phenomenal speech about the need for more affordable housing, how faith organizations can help and the importance of micro villages!
