How You Can Help


Please donate cash onsite! We have a safe and they will give you a receipt at the front desk. You can also send donations by check. Donate online - there's a donate on the right hand side of the page. 

These donations cover our operating expenses - toilets, garbage, water, power, laundry, propane, repairs and maintenance.

*********************************************************************************
We are seeking volunteers to work side by side with community members on security/front desk. We ask that you commit to a weekly shift for 3 months or more if you want to help in this way. This is one of the most important volunteer tasks we have, but it does take training. We won't ever have you working alone, and your first 2-3 shifts will be with 2 community members.

  5. Can I donate by writing a check? That would avoid PayPal's transaction fee. I can drop it off when I get paid by my client, somewhere around the beginning of January.

  7. Hi I'm president of Mad Housers, an Atlanta charity that builds homeless shelters and gives them away for free. I'd like to speak with someone in your organization about possible collaboration.

  8. Hello!

    My name is Brandon Rivera. I am a recent graduate of the University of Portland, and I am a part of an initiative on campus to get students more informed and involved with Portland's houseless crisis. I have been granted the opportunity by the business school to connect all upcoming business students with organizations for a day of service on Saturday, October 6th.

    I have heard a lot about the good work that R2D2 is doing, and I would love to learn how we can help in a day of service.

    Cheers,

    Brandon Rivera
    University FOR Portland

  9. Hi there! I helped out with building tiny house pods last summer. The build lead was a burner, an Aries, and had some interesting ideas. I am trying to reconnect with him to ask him some questions about DIY building, natural building, and other related topics. Anybody have his contact info? I can't quite recall his name....thanks! Also, it's winter! What supplies do yall need there? I have this idea of building a rocket stove out of a metal barrel....

  12. When I am alone, I come to see your comments. It is a very good comment, how strange is your loneliness in this city, there are thousands of people but no one is like that. One is changed because you are not there, yesterday even the sunlight did not come on the wall. Thank you from my heart.

  13. who's currently in charge of this place? I can't seem to find information here that is up to date, or thorough. Is it all on FaceBook? I have materials and ideas to help, but without somebody as a POC, I'm at a loss.

  14. I'm wondering/hopeful that there's a "Wish List" on Amazon you can direct me to, for things needed there. I stopped by earlier with the cleaning wipes, want to suggest a bed bug spray for such a list.
