This Giving Tuesday, let’s show up for our neighbors

On Giving Tuesday, I'm thinking about the families across Oregon who are working hard, doing everything right, and still struggling to put food on the table. No one in our state should ever have to worry about where their next meal is coming from.

That's why I'm asking you to make a gift to the Oregon Food Bank.

If you're able, will you make a Giving Tuesday contribution to the Oregon Food Bank today? Every dollar directly helps a neighbor in need.

The Oregon Food Bank does more than deliver meals. They partner with local communities, support school-based food programs, and make sure families facing hard times don't fall through the cracks. Their work is about dignity — making sure every Oregonian has access to fresh, healthy food, and ensuring kids can focus on being kids, not going hungry.

And right now, demand is higher than ever. Families are being squeezed by costs that keep rising and paychecks that aren't keeping up. Your support today can help fill that gap. It can mean a stocked pantry for a parent working two jobs or a warm meal for a child who would otherwise go without food.

So I'm asking: Will you chip in whatever you can to support the Oregon Food Bank this Giving Tuesday? Together, we can lift up our neighbors and strengthen communities across our state.

Onward!
