Portland Shed was honored to receive the 2025 Outstanding Innovative Project Award from the Association of Fundraising Professionals (AFP) Oregon and Southwest Washington Chapter. We are being recognized for our collaboration with WeShine, building 10 sleeping for their St. Andrew’s Village community, the organization’s newest transitional shelter serving Portland-area adults experiencing homelessness. Thanks to our amazing volunteers who helped on this project and to PeaceHealth for presenting the award to Portland Shed.
Hampton Lumber Bunk Bed Build
Thanks to our friends at Hampton Lumber who recently donated lumber to help ensure “no kid sleeps on the floor in our town”! Last week they took their commitment to the next level and joined the SHP-OR, Portland Metro team for a bunk bed build. We appreciate your ongoing support!
Another successful build day!
Thanks to everyone who pitched in on our latest build. We made another 20 beds and delivered 5 to some very happy kids on Saturday. We can’t do it without all your support!
Table Talk
Thanks for the shout out from our friends at the Community Warehouse, who recently hosted their “Table Talk” show at a table built by the Portland Shed. At the time of this video, Portland Shed volunteers have built and delivered more than 65 kitchen, coffee and end tables to the Community Warehouse.
The Community Warehouse is a “friendly local furniture bank” that provides donated furniture and household items to neighbors seeking the comfort and dignity of a furnished home while overcoming adversity.

Portland Shed Goes Tiny
The Tiny House built entirely by Portland Shed volunteers is now complete and on the market. Proceeds from the 192 sq. ft., 1-bath studio will go directly back to the non-profit organization.
SHP-OR, Portland Metro Delivery
Little Dallas was so excited to be getting a new bed! But he was just as excited to join our SHP crew! He helped every step of the way and was so cheerful and grateful. This family is the reason we do what we do! Check out our video: https://youtu.be/Gw95wK0VonA
