Overview

Mission

Sunshine division's mission is to provide immediate food relief to portland metro familes and individuals in need since 1923.

What it reported doing in 2024

Since 1923, sunshine division, inc. (sunshine division) has provided free immediate food and clothing assistance to portland metro area families and individuals in need. Whether due to the loss of a job, domestic crime, illness, or other extraordinary events including the recent pandemic, sunshine division has built a legacy of mobilizing quickly and efficiently to assist those in crisis. Sunshine division's activities are primarily funded from individual & corporate donors, foundation grants, and events. Continued on schedule owe accomplish our mission through the generosity of our donors, a small staff, exceptional volunteers, engaged board, and a historically evolving number of programs including: *free food assistance provided up to six days a week at our facilities in north and southeast portland.*a home delivery program that provides emergency food boxes directly to homes for homebound portlanders otherwise unable to secure food. This program expanded during the 2024-25 year from 350 to 450 boxes a week.*emergency response 24-hours a day through our partnership with the portland police bureau. The bureau stores food boxes at each police precinct so they can be dispatched to those in need at any time.*with the support of hundreds of volunteers, including portland police officers, distribution of 2,000 thanksgiving food boxes and 2,500 holiday food boxes directly to the homes of those in need.*targeted school related emergency food programs including on site food box distributions, summer breakfast programs, and holiday outreach.*support to local hunger relief agencies, social service organizations, schools, churches, and first responders periodically throughout the year. This support includes distribution of food in bulk quantities as well as assembled food boxes at various times during the year and wide-ranging bulk.*a shopping experience for low-income children through the izzy's kids program, which pairs a police officer and a child in need so they can go shopping for new school clothes.
