Christmas In July: East Portland Drop-off Sites

Our month-long Christmas in July Food Drive supports the PACS Food Bank serving more than 5,600 people every month! From children, their mothers, fathers, grandparents, and to our unsheltered neighbors, every person deserves the dignity of a meal to nourish the body, mind, and heart.

PACS is located in the Gateway area of East side of Portland. It’s one of the busiest food distribution centers in all of Oregon! PACS also operates the Gateway Grace Dental Clinic, a place where people can be blessed with free or reduced dental work. And the PACS Thrift Store offers gently-used, reduced-cost clothing, home goods, furniture, and lots of toys, games, and puzzles!

Throughout the month of July, you can donate food at the locations listed below to make a difference in Portland! If you need to save time but you still want to support, you can share a gift with PACS through the secure donation page, HERE.

Suggested donations include: Cereal, Pasta, Peanut butter, Canned Soup, Canned Vegetables, and Rice
