Giving Back

We believe in giving back.

It's our privilege to give back to so many incredible organizations that strengthen communities and help individuals grow and gain confidence. Sometimes a person just needs a little help, and we believe that every person—regardless of race, background, ethnicity, gender identity, or sexual orientation—deserves a chance. By partnering with non-profits aimed at ending inequity, cycles of abuse, addiction, and poverty, we can make a real impact on human suffering.

Through charitable giving, we support a multitude of charities across the United States and Canada. And through our Volunteer Paid Time-Off policy that encourages employees to donate time to a non-profit of their choice, we have an immediate and tangible effect on our own community of Portland, Oregon.
