This weekend is the last push for our Donation Drive for the Native American Youth and Family Center. They provide education opportunities and drive community involvement of Native youth and families in the Portland metro area. NAYA’s mission is to enhance the diverse strengths of our youth and families in partnership with the community through cultural identity and education.

The 107ist Donation Drive is intended to help them collect items that their programs are low on at the moment. NAYA has a high need for more baby items at the moment, so please focus any shopping efforts on diapers, pull-ups, wipes, and formula.
