Love in Action Gala

Ticket reservations are now closed.

Ecumenical Ministries of Oregon’s “Love In Action” gala supports our vital services for the most vulnerable in our communities: refugees and immigrants, people experiencing food insecurity, low-income people living with HIV, unaccompanied youth experiencing homelessness, and survivors of domestic violence. 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.
