Port City extends a special thank you to all the community volunteers and the Portland Stake of the Church of Jesus Christ of Later-Day Saints members who donated their time and building materials to improve the Port City facility. With community support, we repainted the exterior and much of the interior of Port City, cleaned up the grounds and assisted with the development of the community gardens at the Legacy Emanuel Medical Center. Over 15,000 labor hours were contributed to these projects as well as thousands of dollars of materials donated by the Portland Stake of the Church of Jesus Christ of Later-Day Saints. New Seasons Market donated food for this community event. Thank you neighbors, community members, the Portland Stake of the Church of Jesus Christ of Later-Day Saints members, New Seasons, and Port City employees! Come on by and check out our new look.
