Top Needs for Volunteers

Below you’ll find current, high-priority opportunities for volunteers. To join our team, please fill out a volunteer application you can print or download, or complete our online form.

Event Volunteers
We need you to help plan our community outreach events and interact with neighbors at concerts, festivals, farmers' markets, churches and synagogues. If you like to take photos, bring your camera!

You could also be perfect for developing promotions and enhancing our social media presence.

Lend a Helping Hand!

Each month we receive requests for individualized assistance. This might be one-time help, such as help with moving, or ongoing visiting or other support. It is highly variable. Currently we have a very ill gentleman using an oxygen tank, who would love help catching-up on light household chores a couple of times a month. Contact Kelly@LiftUrbanPortland.org or call 503-221-1224 EXT 105.
