Neighborhood Notes is an online collection of articles and conversations about current local events in Portland, OR. Recently, Jennifer Coughlin posted her piece regarding the Blanchet House’s master plan.

“More good news for the most underserved community in our city—the Blanchet House is about to launch a major capital campaign to offset some of the costs of a brand new multi-million dollar facility on the corner of NW Glisan and NW 4th Ave. Brian Ferschweiler, Executive Director of Blanchet (which includes Blanchet House, Riley House, and Blanchet Farm) says that he is confident that, with their tremendous donor base and helpful community partners, they’ll be able to reach their goal.”

Along with her in-depth article, photos of the Blanchet community taken by Kenneth Aaron are available for viewing, as well as short video. Read the original article at Neighborhood Notes.
