On November 29 it will be our 10th year honoring Black Lives Matter Not Black Friday and it's also time to kick off the official outreach and organizing for Reclaim MLK 2025!

Volunteer here.

This Not Black Friday hot and cold meals will be prepared and packaged for mass distribution to neighbors who may need them.  We are so proud to once again partner with Chef Ricky Bella from Palomar with the support of our Social Outreach Committee to bring these nutritious meals at no cost to our neighbors and community pantries.  #BlackGivesBack #BoycottBlackFriday
 

Please email socialoutreach@dontshootpdx.org if you’re in need of a meal or want to volunteer with the subject line ‘Not Black Friday’.
 

For ten years the Childrens Art and Social Justice Council has led the Reclaim MLK March. To help us get ready, please save the date and join us at PNCA to support our community Art Build on January 18, 2025. If you would like to sponsor this event or any of our programming, please reach out to our board president at taic@dontshootpdx.org.
