This year, Lift UP’s taking a twist on their tradition by focusing their Fall food drives on one of the most "spreadable" sources of goodwill – nut butter! Did you know this humble jar of creamy or crunchy delight tops the list of most sought-after items? People love it for its longer shelf life, easy storage and consumption, and exceptional nutritional value.
With your help, NIBA aims to raise $7,500 between November 1st through December 31st, which will contribute to Lift UP's goal of collecting 5,000 jars of nut butter to stock our neighbors' pantries for the year. Quite a nutty goal, wouldn't you agree? But it's all to ensure our neighbors have their nutritional needs met for the year ahead.
Providing a jar of nut butter and a loaf of bread is one of the simplest ways to offer a nourishing meal to someone transitioning from being unhoused to a safe place they can call home.
Helping to spread the love is easy!
NIBA Business can support in 3 ways:
Host a virtual drive at their business. Every $10 equals 4 jars of nut butter. Customized giving web pages along with posters and handouts with QR codes will be created for each business.
Businesses can choose to forgo the above and give a monetary donation from their business in support. See NIBA Giving Page or mail designated check to:
Lift UP
3448 NW Yeon Avenue
Portland, OR 97210
A combination of 1 & 2. Some businesses do matching gifts and/or host and drive and give a monetary contribution as well.
