  • warning: date(): It is not safe to rely on the system's timezone settings. You are *required* to use the date.timezone setting or the date_default_timezone_set() function. In case you used any of those methods and you are still getting this warning, you most likely misspelled the timezone identifier. We selected the timezone 'UTC' for now, but please set date.timezone to select your timezone. in /var/www/vhosts/wilkeseastna.org/wilkeseastna.org/drupal/modules/event/event.module on line 1433.

Fixing throwaway culture, one toaster at a time
When: Thu Aug 14, 2014 6-9PM
Where: Rosewood Initiative
16126 SE Stark St
Portland, OR
Get Map!

  • Busted bicycle?
  • Ripped jeans?
  • Broken clock?
  • Don’t toss your stuff. Fix it!

Better yet, have a friendly neighbor fix it - for free!
Come to East Multnomah County’s first-ever Repair Café; a free event that connects people who like to fix things with people who need a hand.
Volunteers will tackle:

  • Bike repairs (tires, chains, gears, etc.)
  • Small appliance repairs (fans, blenders, toasters, etc.)
  • Sewing needs (rips, buttons, hems, etc.)
  • Electronics repairs (toys, clocks, microwaves, etc.)

Repair Cafe
The Rosewood Initiative is a nonprofit aimed at improving life in Rosewood, the neighborhood that straddles Gresham and Portland near the intersection of 162nd and Burnside. The initiative partnered with the city of Gresham, the city of Portland, and Repair PDX, the nonprofit that brought repair café events to Portland for the first time in 2013.
Repair Café events started in the Netherlands in 2010 as a way to help people reduce waste and save money. Gresham’s Department of Environmental Services is supporting the event as a way to reduce the amount of waste going into landfills each year.
