Our Freedom Lemonade Youth Activist Store was such an overwhelming show of community support! From June 15th to June 19th, we invited all of our youth to pick up free BLM shirts, PPE supplies, stickers, protest signs, bullhorns and make art. 

THANK YOU to our neighbors who paid reparations and gave their allyship during our March.

We still don’t know what a post COVID-19 world will look like but we know our services are more essential than ever. 

Do not stop showing up. 

We still need your support.

Have you been watching our online rallies? Making our programming virtual is still new to us, but we encourage you all to tune into our Youtube channel and remain engaged. Every Saturday at 2pm, join us in the fight against racism.

WE NEED YOU to show up at the new Multnomah County Courthouse on Tuesday, June 23rd at 9am for the sentencing of Jeremy Christian. 

Corner of SW 1ST AND MADISON.
