Holiday Cheer volunteers help bring the holiday spirit into the homes of more than 200 isolated older adults in N, NE and SE Portland by providing gifts and companionship during December.
Volunteers deliver gift bags to homebound or isolated adults throughout the month of December, spending meaningful time visiting and sharing with them.
Volunteers should allow 30 minutes to an hour for each gift delivery. Gift bags are picked up from the MFS Project Linkage office at 2200 NE 24th Ave. Portland and delivered to older adults and people with disabilities in NE and SE Portland. Delivery volunteers must be 18 or older or accompanied by an adult, and pass a criminal background check. Register early to be matched with someone in your area.

Mission Statement
Metropolitan Family Service helps people move beyond the limitations of poverty, inequality and social isolation. We serve children, families and older adults in the tri-county area. MFS is dedicated to building stronger communities by providing services, connecting people with resources, and offering meaningful and rewarding volunteer opportunities.
Description
Metropolitan Family Service (MFS) volunteers serve in various capacities, depending on their areas of interest and abilities.

We create opportunities that bridge generations and inspire everyone to live their best life.
