Work is love made visible. And if you cannot work with love but only with distaste, it is better that you should leave your work and sit at the gate of the temple and take alms of those who work with joy. - Kahlil Gibran

Exciting Events Support Sisters

Our creative community is getting excited!

Our friends have always amazed us with the imaginative ways they support Sisters! This spring, friendly
folks are planning:

yard sales

music concerts

block parties

and more to spread the word about Sisters.

Everyone can get involved - if you own a business and share a percentage of your sales for a night, we’ll make sure our fabulous (and huge!) Sisters community turns out in support - it’s a win/win for Sisters and for your business!

To find out more about holding an event for Sisters, please call Heather Dorfman, Development Associate, at (503) 222-5694 ext.15, or email her at (JavaScript must be enabled to view this email address).
