People Helping People in Keizer

Keizer Community Foundation has worked for years to identify and then fill Keizer’s needs. The food bank has provided for the needs of local people for many years. More recently, the community discovered that students at Keizer’s middle and high schools needed some assistance with regard to school supplies, nutritional snacks and even clean clothing.

Keizer Community Foundation got to work setting up a network to help. First they made people aware of the need, then they solicited donations and a way to collect them, and finally they set up safe spaces in the schools where students can ‘shop’ for their needs at no cost. That’s putting Keizer’s peoples’ needs first! Way to go Keizer Community Foundation!
