MillionWishes Worldwide Presents: Spiritualize

In coordination with Direct Drive and our Northwest brothers and sisters, we were honored to present Spiritualize. The event took place at The Portland Metropolitan Expo Center, where mankind, music, and artistry intertwine. World-class musicians, artists, and producers collaborated to create a fusion of musical, visual, and theatrical elements, raising the bar for electronic music festivals in the Northwest. Once again, keeping our charity mission close to heart, Spiritualize also offered charity tickets. The proceeds from these tickets went to Greenhouse of the Salvation Army Cascade Division, a Portland sanctuary for homeless youth.

Charity Overview

The concept of the MillionWishes event revolves around a charitable effort. We seek a reason for celebration and aim to make a positive difference through each event. In Portland, Oregon, we have chosen the down-to-earth and practical charity, Greenhouse, which provides a sanctuary for homeless youths. Greenhouse is a part of the Salvation Army Cascade Division in Oregon and utilizes its resources to offer guidance, nurturing, and support to young individuals. Building a close connection to the surrounding communities is vital to our purpose, and through a donation to Greenhouse, we are confident that we will be influencing the lives of the less fortunate among us.

Some details about Greenhouse from their website:

“There are no length of service restrictions. Youth voluntarily access all services. The center is open 24 hours a day, seven days a week, 365 days a year. The alternative school is open M-F, 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. The Salvation Army Greenhouse is located at 820 S.W. Oak Street, in Portland OR, 97205. Contact Claudine Walker at 503.239.1245 for more information.

Big thanks go out to everyone who helped and contributed to our charity effort through the Spiritualize event in Portland, Oregon. We were able to raise $1,874.80 for Greenhouse. While up in Portland, we visited Greenhouse and were extremely impressed with the way it supports and cares for youth, providing opportunities for growth.
