We are in the days ahead of unknowns for what is to come for hundreds of charities, including the major charities that have depended on taxpayer funding. Many specific targeted groups will now have no where to turn, unless you and I step up.
One of the MOST forgotten and VULNERABLE people are our senior citizens who are all alone. No family. No friends. No-one to visit, unless it is from an agency that makes contact with them. Seniors living for their last breath in Nursing homes. Seniors hanging on by a thread alone in their homes. Forgotten by family. Friends long gone. Highway 62 reaches out to to these in many ways. Finding the Forgotten.
We assist with their needs that make them feel loved. Birthday gifts. Christmas gifts. Clothing. Books. Music. Working right along side church and other agencies to find them, and show them love, and compassion.

"There's an expression, 'my so-called life. That's about the size of it. I sit here all day. I had 26 cousins, but they're all dead now. I'm the only one alive. I had dear friends from grade school. As we got married, we lived close together and, would you believe it, I have one friend with Alzheimer's left. Other than that I'm the only one alive. There's no one I can call up and say, 'Do you remember when...?' There's nobody." - A. Brennan, Milwaukie We have major expenses coming up with our annual fundraiser in May. Unfortunately, to put on a top notch all day festival requires a larger budget. We are very blessed that we can do this for under $6500.00. A family friendly Strawberry festival, with music all day long, including Jeff & Sheri Easter, who perform with the Gaithers all year long. The gifts we give are either donated, or thrifted and re-purposed. We have web and social media expenses. Fuel for picking up donations. Fuel for making deliveries. Every donation goes straight to assisting others.
