The American Red Cross Oregon Trail Chapter will join Friends of Mt. Tabor and over 100 partners and staff from PricewaterhouseCoopers’ Portland office to provide education and hands on community service to help beautify Mt. Tabor Park, an established landmark in SE Portland.
Continuing its mission to build and sustain strong community partnerships, the Oregon Trail Chapter will bring awareness of Red Cross services to our community partner’s as well as the surrounding community.
Red Cross Youth Council volunteers will hand out safety information via door hangers increasing the visibility of the youth volunteer program as well as provide the community surrounding Mt. Tabor Park with emergency preparedness information.
