Operation Nightwatch

Amazing job on the “Warm The Winter” Clothing Drive, Pio Nation! Over 100 warm weather items are on their way to the folks at @Nightwatch!

We are very excited to announce the beginning of our 3rd annual “Warm The Winter” clothing drive to benefit @Nightwatch! Let’s make a much needed difference Pio Nation! Please contact Coach Kosderka with any questions or donations at mkosderka@lclark.edu.

So excited to share our community partners for @GiveGuide: Raíces de Bienestar and @Nightwatch! Last week, we got together and started planning for November and December! Can't wait to share more and elevate the amazing work of our community partners. Stay tune! #community #pdx

Operation Nightwatch has been partnering with @HandsOnPDX to recruit volunteers for our evening program hours. Please consider spending an evening with our low-income and homeless guests for food service, coffee, games, and conversation. handsonportland.org/organization/0…

Today is #GivingTuesday. Help Nightwatch continue to be there for houseless Portlanders living through tough times. Please click to support us by giving what you can today, and please spread the word by sharing our posts! shorturl.at/cxAQ1

Grants Pass business and city leaders thought people experiencing homelessness were deterring tourists, so they tried to push them out of town. They ticketed, arrested and offered no shelter. Now a lawsuit says that approach is unconstitutional: news.streetroots.org/2020/04/25/law…

Celebrating all at @Lines_for_Life Championing mental wellness & the prevention of substance use disorder & suicide, w/the Senior Loneliness Line, YouthLine & so much more. Thank you for offering us hope to “Rise to the Surface of the Water” (@ChinaForbes I still have chills!)

Grants Pass city officials had a simple approach to homelessness: Make life so uncomfortable, they leave. Now a lawsuit from Oregon Law Center is the first to test the Boise decision and reveals systemic punishment and harassment for sleeping outdoors. news.streetroots.org/2020/04/25/law…

Nice piece on one of our partner orgs. What didn’t make the cut? We’re also running a food pantry for unhoused folks, doing delivery for some of the more remote camps, and serving meals in parks 8x a week.

@LCPiosBB @KosCause We are so grateful to have @KosCause and Lewis & Clark Baseball supporting what we do! Thank you!

Along with @KosCause, we would like to encourage you to help Operation Nightwatch help the homeless population in Portland on #GivingTuesdayNow. While times are tough and it stinks being stuck at home, it is even tougher to not have a home to stay safe in. #WE>ME

We can't let our neighbors living on the streets of Portland be forgotten during this pandemic. Please consider making a donation to Nightwatch as we come up on #GivingTuesdayNow, a global day of unity and generosity this May 5th. secure.lglforms.com/form_engine/s/…

We also received 500 face masks 😷 from Ellen and Kayla, friends who took up a collection to donate to local nonprofits and people in need. Thank you so much!! @cservicec #COVIDkindness

A sample of two types of awesome donations from last weekend! Westminster Presbyterian Church has a social group called the Windjammers that does a “Socks & Sweatshirt” drive. They donated two massive boxes of socks and a bunch of sweatshirts to us.

A reminder to all domestic violence survivors that there is help during this stay at home order. The Gateway Center is still available to domestic violence survivors Monday-Friday 9 a.m.- 5 p.m. via phone at 503-988-6400 buff.ly/2VcdEUN

@Nightwatch Thank you for continuing to call for our most vulnerable Portlanders @Nightwatch #PortlandersTogether

Damn. This got me. An unhoused woman said that when she got to sleep in a hotel room, "I cried. I haven't been in a bed since 2014."

Natasha from @MultCohealth walks you through how to make your own face-covering using just one bandana, one coffee filter, and two rubber bands -- all in under 2 minutes!

A big donation from longtime supporter @elephantsdeli carried us through last weekend!! So appreciate your support. ❤ #wereallinthistogether #covid19mostvulnerable
