As you all know, our dear friend and founding member, former Executive Director, and so much more to Host2Host passed away recently. In memory of her strong and enduring contributions to our organization, we have authorized a memorial gift to an organization that she strongly supported and that made a significant impact on their family, the Portland Youth Philharmonic, the oldest youth orchestra in the United States, founded over 100 years ago in 1924.

All financial donations received in the month of March will be passed along to this inspiring organization. So far, we have collected $1,170 and will be making a combined contribution of at least $1,670 to support young musicians. If you would like to contribute, there's still time! Donate here.
