Do you love talking to new people? Put your gift of gab to work by helping Community Energy Project (CEP) get the word out in Lents!
CEP provides free weatherization and safety repairs to low-income seniors and people with disabilities in the Lents Urban Renewal Area in SE Portland. Our goal is to make sure those who need our services know about our services. www.communityenergyproject.org
Volunteers will knock on doors and sign up people who are interested in our free services.
Participants must have strong verbal/social skills, be 18 or over (unless accompanied by a guardian) and be prepared for inclement weather.
The day begins at 10:30 with a training and orientation session (with tasty food!) and we carpool out to the Lents service area. Canvassing lasts about 3 hours, and we should be back in NE Portland by 4pm. Cyclists welcome! We frequently work with Service Learning Students and Community
Service agencies. Meet at Community Energy Project’s office – 422 NE Alberta Street, Portland OR.
Our next canvassing days are:
Saturday, February 11th
Saturday, February 18th
11:00am-4pm
Please contact Sherrie Smith at outreach@communityenergyproject.org or call 503.284.6827 x106 if you’d like to participate.
