Potluck in the Park

March 22, 2015 @ 2:00 pm - 5:00 pm

Potluck in the Park has been serving a free hot meal to anyone in need – no questions asked – since 1991. Every Sunday, rain or shine, 52 weeks a year, we’re providing a hot meal in downtown Portland. Thanks to volunteers like you, every Sunday a public park becomes a community of those wishing to serve anyone in need.

Because this is a very popular project that requires a high-level of coordination, all volunteers MUST sign up ahead of time to reserve a volunteer slot. Please REGISTER HERE!

Potluck in the Park is one of the few weekend meal services available for anyone experiencing hunger. 400 – 800 Portlanders do not go hungry on Sunday because of Potluck in the Park. Food is donated by individuals, businesses, organizations and religious institutions of all faiths. Supplemental donations are gleaned on a weekly basis from area grocers, bakers, wholesalers, hotels, restaurant owners and caterers.

We are a volunteer-driven, grass roots, nonprofit, tax exempt 501(c)(3) organization.
Our budget goes directly to the people who need it, people who otherwise might not receive a hot meal. We accomplish our mission of providing nutritious food and an atmosphere of community to anyone in need, because of you and others like you!
