Living in one of the most bicycle friendly places, this would open our world up to explore more of the city we love. We are frequently going on long walks to find fun places to eat and parks to relax in. Bicycles would help us to exercise in a new way, and experience more of what Portland is all about.

Kayaking, hiking and exploring around the islands.

There are many things in this world that we are very passionate about. Some of the things that are very near the top of the list are animals and the environment. Instead of a present for the "bride and groom"; please give the gift of making a contribution to the World Wildlife Foundation. The following link provides more information about the WWF, and how to make a donation. If it is easier for you, we would be honored to make a contribution on your behalf. https://support.worldwildlife.org/site/Donation2?df_id=11060&11060.donation=form1&s_src=AWE1200GDGA1&gclid=CjwKEAjwudW9BRDcrd30kovf8GkSJAB3hTxF2_A5bvZjRxQkklDTTZE667LWoaY8OjOGMjw6vFJlYxoCyhjw_wcB

Fresh water resources are scarce in Africa, leaving many communities susceptible. Having witnessed this on a recent trip to Africa, I was struck by the reality of what poverty means around the world. The Water Project is a program helping to build systems in these communities to provide fresh drinking water to cook with and grow crops. Please give the gift of making a contribution to this great program and help increase the health and potential of these communities. https://thewaterproject.org/
