You Help Belonging Take Root
MFS has been a steadfast partner to Portland-area families for 75 years. Today, deep federal funding cuts threaten the services thousands of people depend on.
Your gift helps protect those programs — ensuring children, families, and older adults continue receiving support, connection, and opportunities to thrive.
See Belonging in Action
Every week, Experience Corps mentors meet one-on-one with students who are eager to learn but need a little extra support to stay on track. The program is simple, relational, and powerful—bringing older adult volunteers together with young readers to build confidence, connection, and critical literacy skills.
This work is just one example of how MFS shows up for our community. Across all our programs—early learning, hunger relief, economic empowerment, intergenerational support—your donation helps keep families connected to the resources they rely on.
Give today to sustain programs like Experience Corps—and the many others our community counts on.
