Donate to the p:ear Giving Tree
Every winter, p:ear youth are looking for basic needs such as socks, backpacks, bus tickets, gift cards, art supplies, and other items that are around $25. The Giving Tree helps p:ear supply youth with essential items they need throughout the year.
We're thrilled to help support the annual Giving Tree for p:ear. You can view our p:ear tree located in our lobby during your visit and then drop off your contributions to p:ear. Can’t stop by in person? Check out p:ear's Amazon Wish List to have items shipped right to their door!

About p:ear
Founded in 2002, p:ear has provided invaluable mentoring services to Portland’s homeless and parent-less young people. p:ear’s mission is to build positive relationships with 15- to 25-year-old homeless and transitional youth, through education, arts, and recreation, to affirm personal worth and create more meaningful and healthier lives. Each year, p:ear serves roughly 800 homeless young people. Currently, we see 65 youth per day. p:ear was created from a vision of compassion. We believe that each youth deserves to empower themselves and develop a positive self-identity that encompasses a sense of self-worth and a capacity for risk, growth, change. pearmentor.org
