Preparing for emergencies and keeping your community safe is not a one-size-fits-all process. Just as neighbors are all unique in their own way, how YOU organize may be different from someone else’s depending on your needs and abilities.
Join us on Tuesday, February 7th from 6:30 – 7:30 pm to chat with neighbors who have successfully begun preparing for a variety of scenarios with their own immediate neighbors. We will get a chance to hear what is and isn’t working for them and how we can all continue to train and support each other. Bring your ideas and questions!
Community organizations are partnering with Food for Lane County to help families this February. There are a number of churches, schools, and other businesses hosting drives in our area. OnPoint Community Credit Union inside Fred Meyer at Division Avenue is making it easy to drop off donations.
Their donation barrel is located at the entrance of the OnPoint branch making it simple to pick up a few items at Fred Meyer and make your donation on the way out. You can also scan the QR code below to donate funds.
Please help support SCCO’s efforts helping Food for Lane County and community members this month.
