Please share your own UCP Oregon #BelieveAble photos with UCP's Development Coordinator, Matt Aldapa.

Hi! This is a special report from Corrie Hausman, UCP Oregon's Marketing Coordinator.

I've been using Amazon's amazing "AmazonSmile" program to raise free money for UCP! So far, UCP has received $6.49 from my Amazon purchases.

All I had to do was visit the "AmazonSmile" webpage and choose UCP Oregon as my favorite non-profit. Then, instead of using the regular Amazon web address when I want to make a purchase, I use the "AmazonSmile" web address. That's it! So easy.

In 2014, six mothers from UCP Oregon’s Family Support Department sat down at the Well Arts Institute to do something exciting and scary: to share their stories with the idea of creating a play about their experiences. They talked about happiness and hope. They talked about sadness and fears. Over ten weeks, they stitched their words into a play called “Fierce Love: Stories by Mothers of children with CP.”

UCP Oregon’s Employment Solutions department assists job-seekers who experience disabilities to find meaningful jobs in the community. Once the individual has the job, we can provide initial training and on-going supports as needed—all with the goal of ensuring the newly hired employee is as independent as possible.

We are excited to announce that Dollar For Portland has once again selected a UCP family to be its monthly recipient. 

Three days after Winnie was born, she started to have some complications. She experiences epilepsy, auditory neuropathy, cortical visual impairment, cerebral palsy, and global developmental delay. Winnie is in and out of the hospital, and, not surprisingly, medical bills pile up quickly. 

Please watch Winnie's story (here) and consider supporting this wonderful family!
