We are a nonprofit free thrift store in Portland, Oregon. We started in 2024, and in 2026 secured a permanent location. We need funding for rent for six months with the cost of all our bills being around $1100 a month. We are 100% volunteer-run at this point and don’t have much overhead. There is a big need in the community for free resources. Our store is open for anyone that seeks resources after disasters. We continually have people coming in that are leaving domestic violence situations, houselessness, that need food, basic resources, etc.

Funds will be used for post fire recovery efforts in case of wildfire in our area. Our greatest resilience need is to assist rural landowners or residents within WUI who may be affected by wildfires during this season to restore and recover natural resources. These areas are more vulnerable to wildfire impacts and have less access to resources to assist them.
