At Rose Haven we served 20,809 meals in 2018, and are on track to serve even more in 2019. Most of our food comes from local businesses, and it can be challenging for staff to juggle these daily pick-ups, and they generally occur in the morning before the start of the work day.
We can always use help with pick-up and delivery of daily food donations, and have a few options for pickup and delivery to Rose Haven, if you are interested and have a vehicle.
Monday Mornings: Pick up food from Urban Gleaners at 15 SE 6th Ave. This is pretty easy because everything is loaded onto a cart for pick up, just pull your car into the lot and load it in, then deliver to Rose Haven around 10:00 am.
Wednesday Mornings: Pick up donuts from Nola Donuts at 110 NW 10th Ave. This is an early morning pickup, just about 10 blocks from Rose Haven.
Once per month: Pickup from PDX Diaper Bank at 6011 SE 92nd Ave This is a once per month pickup of diapers and wipes. Usually a whole carload.
Once per month: Pick up pet food from The Pongo Fund pet food bank on the Central Eastside. This is always on the 4th Sunday of the month, and you can deliver to Rose Haven at your convenience.

Mission Statement
Our Vision: A community where everyone has safety, stability, love, health and home. Our Mission: To provide day shelter, resources, emotional support and community connections to women, children and marginalized genders experiencing homelessness and poverty.
Description
Safety, Resources and Community:
Rose Haven is a day shelter and community center in Portland OR serving women, children and marginalized genders experiencing poverty, trauma and intersecting issues. Service hours are Monday - Friday from 9:00-12:00 and Tuesday - Thursday from 1:00-4:00; volunteer opportunities are generally available from 8:30-4:00.
Rose Haven is a low-barrier agency that exists not to just meet basic needs, but to nurture souls and improve the emotional, mental and physical well-being of our guests and our community as a whole. We understand our agency exists within larger systems of oppression, and we seek to disrupt those structures through radical hospitality, advocacy on an individual and community level, and meaningful connections to resources. Recognizing the isolation and loneliness that homelessness can create, we work to hold a space where all guests can connect, have voice and be empowered.
