Oregon Food
Bank works to eliminate hunger and its root causes ... because
no one should be hungry. Oregon Food Bank directly operates the
four regional food banks serving the Portland metro area, Tillamook
and southeast Oregon. Those four centers distribute food weekly to
348 food pantries, soup kitchens, shelters and other programs helping
low-income individuals in Clackamas, Clark, Multnomah, Washington,
Tillamook, Malheur and Harney counties.
The North American Organic Brewers Festival will be
collecting canned food at the gate for this worthy organization. Bring
three cans of food and get a discount on your reusable, yet compostable,
cornstarch tasting glass.
