We see them. We absolutely see them.

Yes, it's election season. Yes, we took back the White House. Yes, we need to do everything we can to make sure we win in Georgia and take back the Senate next month.

But we also need to take a deep breath and recognize that, for too many of our friends and neighbors, the election isn't on their minds right now.

Know what is? A meal for themselves, for their kids.

COVID-19 has challenged us in so many ways. One that isn't talked about nearly enough is how it's impacting the people who rely on food donation services.

Today, on Giving Tuesday, as we push on into the holidays, this is exactly the conversation we need to be having, starting with supporting our friends at the Oregon Food Bank.

Families in our community are hurting, and are in need of help like never before. We need to let them know right now that we're there for them no matter what.

Please make a Giving Tuesday donation to the Oregon Food Bank right now. Your support is appreciated, is noticed, and is most certainly critical.
