"Courtesy, kindness, justice, and love are the keynotes by which we may come into harmony with practically anybody." -- Step Ten, 12 Steps and 12 Traditions. In Recovery, we often say, “We keep what we have only by giving it away,” Everyday is an opportunity to reach beyond ourselves and focus on the small gestures of kindness for others. Whether it be bringing a friend a coffee, donating it to a food pantry, sending an encouraging text to someone, letting a car into the traffic ahead of you, or putting away the chairs at your homegroup, make time to do something for someone else today “just because.” Learn about Cedars' Authentic Recovery at: https://ow.ly/CvZV50Rmuvm

🥫 February is Canned Food Month! 🍲 As we navigate through this month, let's take a moment to peek into our kitchen cabinets. It's the perfect time to check on those canned goods we've been storing. 🧐 Here's a small but impactful task for this week: Check the expiration dates on your canned food items. Set aside those that are still good but you don't plan to eat. Why not turn this into an opportunity to give back? 🤝 Those unexpired cans could be a hearty meal for someone in need. Consider donating them to your local food pantry. It's a simple act of kindness that can make a big difference in your community. 🌟 Let's spread the love this February by sharing what we can. Drop off your canned goods at a nearby pantry and help keep the spirit of giving alive! 💖 Remember, every can counts! 🙌 #CannedFoodMonth #GiveBack #CommunitySupport #FoodPantryDonation #SpreadKindness #FebruaryGiving #CheckYourCans #DonateToday #FeedingTheCommunity #EveryCanCounts

One of the easiest ways to support the kids served by GO Pantry is to donate food items we need to fill our Spring Break GO Boxes. 🌷☀️🌈 And if you don't have the time or physical capacity to hold an official food drive in your workspace, simply shop our Amazon Wish List and have our most needed items shipped directly to our warehouse! 📦 Spring Break GO Boxes provide a week's worth of kid-friendly, easy-to-prepare food for kids who experience food insecurity when they aren't in school (and as a result, aren't receiving school-provided breakfast and lunch). Click through to access our wish list, or email sarah@gopantry.org for a full list of items needed for GO Boxes. https://lnkd.in/gdhB2Agg

5 tips for spring cleaning and organizing in a large family home ✨ 1. Make organization fun - get a big basket or chest to store kids' toys, games and more. 2. Donate anything you haven't used in the last year. 3. If something doesn't add value or joy to your life, donate or give it to a friend or family member. 4. Get the kids involved! Open up the windows (when it's not too cold), shake out the blankets, clean out the fridge and start fresh for springtime together. 5. Invest in a major storage piece to put your necessities behind closed doors, like a media console or large dresser. We hope these tips can add some fun and organization to your home this spring!

August marked a significant milestone for us—we gave out over 103,800 pounds of food in just one month! This is the first time we've surpassed 100,000 pounds in a single month, serving a record 1,822 families—equating to 5,610 people! To put that in perspective, in August 2023, we provided just shy of 75,000 pounds of food to 1,207 families—reaching 3,929 people. The growth we are experiencing is truly humbling. As we transition from our "slower season," with an already 44% growth rate compared to last year, into the busy months from September to December, we anticipate serving even more people in our programs. And we can serve these ever-increasing numbers with the support of our community! Thank you for your contributions of time, food, and funds; we couldn't serve our neighbors in need without you! #DonateFood #FoodDrive #FeedCentralOregon #EndHunger #FightHunger #CommunitySupport #CentralOregonGives #LocalFoodPantry #GiveBack #HelpYourNeighbors #CentralOregonCares #SupportLocalCharities #FoodForAll #GiveLocal #NeighborsHelpingNeighbors #VolunteerCentralOregon #GiveYourTime #MakeADifference #VolunteerLocally #BeTheChange #HelpYourCommunity
