We have been invited to the Labor Day picnic event with AFL-CIO. We are very excited to talk to union members about the benefits of a universal health plan. This should garner interest amongst union members because health benefits are always a difficulty during negotiations with employers. The event goes from 11am-5pm but we will need help with set up and take down as well. No one is expected to stay all day and there will be multiple shifts. There will be a table and chairs so you will be able to sit.

The 50501 group has invited us to set up a table and crowd canvass at their rally on Labor Day!!! The last rally we went to with this group had about 40,000 people at it. And they are like minded and most are aligned with our healthcare beliefs and goals. If you are a new crowd canvasser, you could not have picked a more friendly event. Ernie will be leading and they are great. They will also be a great support as you are trying to find your flow and get going.  We will first be meeting at Pine Street Market. Here, we will go over talking points and the clipboard you will be using. Then, we will walk down to the rally 30 minutes early (around 11:30 am) to set up and start our day of tabling. There are two different shift times: 11am-1:30pm and 1:30pm-4:00pm. The second shift won't meet at the coffee shop, but will instead go straight to the Battleship Memorial on the waterfront and search for the HCAO tent which will be marked.  Please consider crowd canvassing this event so we can get more great volunteers like yourself into the organization.

Come set up shop at the Come Thru Market, and bring more people on board with HCAO this summer! We're scheduled to come to the Come Thru Market on the first Monday or every month, and set up a Community Booth! Booths are there from 2:00 until 7:00. We can have volunteers come for one or both of two shifts, 2:00 - 5:00, and 4:00 - 7:00"Come Thru Market is an incubator market centering Black and Indigenous Farmers, Makers, and Friends. We support BIPOC growers in taking their small business dreams to the farmers market environment. It’s a vibe - Come Thru and get what you need."

I'm excited to invite you all to volunteer at the Portland Chapter's first fundraising event! We've always had our big organizational fundraisers, but for the first time Portland is taking a lead on hosting it's own events. I am looking for people who specifically have an OLCC permit and food handlers card to serve food and drinks to bingo players. We won't be mixing any cocktails, it'll be solely beer and wine. But this could potentially help us alot with revenue.  The actual event is from 4-6pm, so if you sign up to do service, then we will only need you during those times. Thanks so much!

Join Judy and other HCAO volunteers from west Portland at the Hillsdale Farmers market! We'll have a tent, a table, and will be sharing the exciting news about Oregon's possible transition to a universal health care system.
