Ecumenical Ministries of Oregon’s Benefit Dinner & Awards Celebration is the single most important annual fundraiser for our vital ministries to the poor, the vulnerable, the hungry and the sick throughout the state of Oregon. Funds contributed by sponsors and guests enable us to serve those in need and to advocate on their behalf at the Oregon Legislature for a just, equitable and sustainable society. We will also honor extraordinary individuals and organizations whose courage, moral vision and commitment to action have contributed profoundly to making Oregon, and the world, a better place.
This year, we are honoring:
The Rev. Dr. W.G. Hardy, Jr. (in memoriam), Senior Pastor, Highland United Church of Christ
E.D. Mondainé, Senior Pastor, Celebration Tabernacle Church
Sharon Thornberry, Rural Communities Liaison, Oregon Food Bank
Rose Haven Day Center for Women & Children
Thomas Aschenbrener, Founding President of the NW Health Foundation
Reception & Silent Auction at 5 p.m., followed by Dinner & Awards Presentation at 6:30 p.m.
