Volunteer Opportunities
The Foster-Powell Neighborhood Association is an all-volunteer group, and we are always looking for more volunteers! Some examples of ways you can help:
Cooking Meals for Shelters
Want to get started volunteering at the new shelters in Foster-Powell? The FPNA is helping organize a group of community volunteers to cook and serve food every month! Go to this page for more information.
Shelter Meal Coordinator
Help maintain our Shelter Meal program by coordinating our monthly meal. An FPNA volunteer works with a representative from the shelter and coordinates our neighborhood cooks and drivers to ensure a smooth dinner delivery.
Firland Parkway Project
This project will help bring a walking path and other improvements to the undeveloped right-of-way between the north- and south-bound lanes of SE 72nd Ave from SE Holgate Blvd to SE Foster Rd. Go to this page for more information – updates coming soon!
Foster-Powell Community Garden
The garden is looking for regular volunteers to help with upkeep and maintenance. Contact Emily at 62ndgarden@gmail.com
Other Existing Events
Do you like planning events? Do you enjoy the Foster Summer Soiree, Foster-Powell Garden Tour, National Night Out party, and others? These events are organized by your all-volunteer neighborhood association, and we can always use more helping hands!
Board member

I am interested in being on the agenda to talk about the need for foster parents and other ways anyone interested can help even if they cannot be a foster parent. I work for the State of Oregon, born and raised here and have lived in FOPO for 20 years. Thank you. Carrie
Hi Carrie! I’ve sent you an email about this request. In the future, please email contact@fosterpowell.com for agenda requests. Thanks!
