How Oregonians can support Season of Sharing, our holiday campaign
Manage episode 454634361 series 2586574
For decades, The Oregonian has sponsored an annual fundraising drive, featuring local nonprofits making a difference in our community. Its part of The Oregonian/OregonLive’s mission to strengthen and empower the communities we serve.
This year, we are featuring 13 nonprofits. Once the board chooses a nonprofit, reporters and photographers find an example of how the agency has helped individuals. Each article is accompanied by a box that shows what donations, even small ones, can accomplish.
Grant Butler, a longtime editor and reporter in our newsroom, takes on the challenge of managing the project each fall. He joined Editor Therese Bottomly, who leads the board overseeing Oregonian Publishing Co. Public Benefits Inc., to talk about the importance of our campaign.
