Hands On Greater Portland

The book gap: For children in poverty, one of the biggest obstacles to literacy development (which begins at birth) is the scarcity of books in the home. While the ratio of books to children in middle-income neighborhoods is approximately 13 books to 1 child, the ratio in low-income neighborhoods is a mere 1 book to 300 children. The Children’s Book Bank narrows the book gap by providing the community with a place for families donate the books their children have outgrown, moving thousands and thousands of children’s books into the homes of kids in need. Sign up below to come lend a hand as we spruce-up community donated books which will later be distributed to low-income preschool children in the Portland area! Every gently-used donated book is inspected and cleaned by volunteers. Tasks include wiping covers, taping torn pages, erasing scribbles, covering inscriptions, and reinforcing worn spines. *TEAMS NOTE: if you are signing up as a Team, you are limited to reserving 6 slots. If you have more than 6 in your group please email info@childrensbookbank.org FAQs: Is this a place I can bring my children? On Wednesday night sessions, volunteers ages 12 and older are welcome at Children’s Book Bank. Volunteers under age 15 must attend with a trusted adult. Please follow the instructions below to reserve a spot for your child. If you are looking for a shift open to younger volunteers, check out our Tuesday early-evening sessions here. Can I bring books to donate? Yes, of course! You are welcome to bring either new or gently-used books with you to this volunteer event. Children’s Book Bank serves children under the age of six, so donations of “read aloud” books are greatly appreciated. Books in Spanish are a particular need. And if you're interested in learning more about hosting a book drive for the Children's Book Bank, we'd love to hear from you! Email info@childrensbookbank.org for more information. Where do the books go? Children’s Book Bank partners with local agencies to identify families and children in need of books. Last year every Head Start preschooler in Multnomah County received a bag of 15 books of their own to have at home.

Wake up your inner artist and join us for an evening of fun! We put together an arts activity night for about 10-20 of our kids. By engaging youth in positive activities at a young age, we hope to connect them with each other, increase high school graduation rates, and offer creative outlets. Since this isn't a formal art class, we need flexible go-with-the-flow volunteers to come and add creativity and assistance to the class. McCoy Village is an affordable housing community, located in NE Portland. Our art workshops are enjoyed by children in the K-5 age range. This site has 150 residents with an estimated demographic of 70% Black residents. This experience would not happen without volunteer help and provides an artistic and community building outlet for our children whenever possible. If you happen to have an overload of art supplies at home that you'd like to donate, feel free to bring them with you! We may work on individual and collective art projects like drawing, cut outs, collages, or whatever we might have in our supply closet - our art activities are volunteer led and are not structured. Our youth are looking forward to this hands on experience and attend our activities to feel valued and welcomed in this community. Previous experience working with kids and/or art is helpful but not necessary! Please know that you will be working with a high energy group of kids coming from a wide variety of backgrounds. Patience, flexibility, and fun are important ingredients to bring with you when you volunteer! Remember that although we're bringing the kids together for the art project, it's really an opportunity to make a positive connection with the kids, regardless of the activity!

OUR ORGANIZATION'S MISSON In many communities and cultures, it is traditional for friends and neighbors to prepare meals for loved ones who are caring for a sick family member. It is an act of kindness that translates feelings of concern into a tangible expression of human compassion. The families that stay at Ronald McDonald House are often far away from family, friends and other support systems that would normally help them through a difficult time. They return to the House after a long day at the hospital and cooking a meal for themselves may be low on their long list of priorities. The chance for these families to sit down to a home-cooked meal is another way that makes the Ronald McDonald House truly a “home away from home” for families whose children are critically ill. All volunteers that come into the house learn about what we do, meet the families that we serve, and truly see what a difference you make providing a direct service to all of our families so they can focus on their child! FOR THIS PROJECT Volunteers will be asked to bring ingredients to contribute to the meal and the group will prepare dinner on-site for the families at Ronald McDonald House. The volunteer leader will contact each volunteer to instruct you on what ingredients to bring. We're counting on you! It is imperative that if you sign up for this project, you intend to be there and provide the ingredients that are assigned to you. When volunteers don't show up, we're not able to make the meal. If you are unable to attend, please let your Volunteer Leader know ASAP! Please note: no volunteer will be turned away due to lack of resources. If bringing a food item is a hardship for you, please alert the Volunteer Leader. VOLUNTEERING WITH US Volunteers will work together in the kitchen, guided by the Volunteer Leader, to prepare dinner for our families in residence. All ingredients must be prepped on site or brought from a commercial kitchen such as a store bakery or local restaurant. The meal will be set out buffet style at 6pm. This allows families to come into the dining room as their schedule allows and serve themselves from the family style platters the volunteers have made. We encourage volunteers to clean-up as they prepare the meal, but ask that anything left from the preparation, after the meal has been set out for our families, be washed as well. Once that is taken care of, volunteers are welcome to join the families for the meal, if they feel comfortable doing so. Even though dinner is set out buffet style for families to serve themselves, we ask that volunteers package up all the remaining food right before 7pm in our to-go leftover containers, and place them in the red dot fridge. Getting the sniffles? We serve families with immune suppressed patients, so we ask that anyone working with food must be symptom-free of contagious illness (fever, productive cough, unexplained rash, etc.) for 5 days prior to visiting. If someone in your group comes down with the sniffles, please ask someone new to join you. If it’s your whole group, just let us know. We are happy to reschedule with you. When You Arrive: Our East House is located on Legacy Emmanuel’s campus. Please park in the upper parking lot (the first one you see when you turn onto our road) or in one of the parking garages. Please help us leave the lot closest to the House open for our guests and families. If you need to unload anything, please pull in to the closest lot to unload, and then move your vehicle afterwards. Parking Garages: Parking Structure 3: top and bottom levels only, the spots without "Patient/Visitor" markings on them. Parking Structures 1 & 4 (North side of campus): top levels only Surface lots: West of the construction site and in between Vancouver/Williams) General Guidelines: - Please do not wear cologne or perfume in the house. - Please do not take pictures of families staying at the house. You may take pictures of the house, your group, and any staff/volunteers who agree to be photographed. - To assure the protection of the confidentiality and privacy of families, volunteers will hold in strict confidence all information acquired through service at the house, including but not limited to: names, addresses, diagnoses, and personal circumstances. - Volunteers may not, under any circumstances, take responsibility for supervising or caring for children in the absence of a parent or guardian. - Because we serve families with immune suppressed patients, it is important for us to ask about any current or recent illness. Everyone volunteering at the House must be symptom-free of contagious illness (fever, productive cough, unexplained rash, etc.) and head lice for 48 hours prior to visiting, and not have been exposed to diptheria, measles, mumps, TB, chicken pox, or shingles within the last 3 weeks. If you do not meet these requirements, we will need you to reschedule your visit as you may pose a danger to the immune suppressed patients in our House. Thank you for your understanding and for helping to keep our House safe!
