He asked for us to bring food and hydration supplies for today as assessment and initial cleanup activities were started. Due to the potential for more severe weather this weekend, we have been asked to return on Monday with meals for those who will be taking part in the larger community cleanup initiative that is being planned. We will continue to work with the community of Portland to provide support until it is no longer needed.\u201d<\/p>\n<div class=\"credits-overlay\" data-target=\".wp-image-7780\">The Salvation Army
