We work to create a sponsorship that best promotes your business, while supporting parents and children in our community. Email Maura at mauraw@momchildpdx.org if you are interested.

Internships

Apply to complete an internship with us by emailing an Intern Application to Maura at mauraw@momchildpdx.org with cover letter and resume. Speak a second language? Bonus! Skills may include: quiet conversation, trauma awareness, empathy, follow-up calls, connecting parents to supplies and local resources, working with at-risk populations, understanding other cultures.

Become a community connector

Coordinate a “Campaign for Change” for your faith community, community group, class, or business by distributing sippy cups to individuals to take home to fill with donations. Groups typically fill bottles with donations for 3-weeks, while an event or business “host” a larger bottle at the reception/checkout/desk. Group leads return bottles to MCEC at an agreed upon time.
