Oregon Food Bank Appreciates Donors

Portland, May 6th, 2015. Oregon Food Bank honored its generous supporters during a special Donor Appreciation Evening at the Hotel deLuxe. Guests learned more about the people and programs they are helping. They also had the opportunity to ask questions of our CEO, Susannah Morgan. Oregon Food Bank’s gardening and cooking classes teach people to grow their own food, plan meals and eat on a limited budget. In addition to providing food to food banks, pantries and meal sites throughout Oregon, the organization is also working with healthcare providers to screen for food insecurity.

Drs. John and Diane Howieson enjoy scrumptious hors d’ouevres.

Oregon Food Bank’s mission is to eliminate hunger and its root causes … because no one should be hungry.
