It all started with an email.

We were meeting to discuss plans for future Love In Stereo projects. It was not going well. We were kind of discouraged, for whatever reason, then the email came in. It was from our friend Andy in Fresno, California.

The email told us about how he had a group of teenagers who had been inspired by Love In Stereo. He also told us that they wanted to move into action. They were planning a trip to Portland, Oregon. Why? Because in Portland there is a huge population of homeless teenagers. They were on a mission to help in whatever way they could.

Now several months later they are there taking action.

Right now they are there running a clothing drive, helping clean up, building relationships and are also currently scouting for ways we can all pitch in. In the coming weeks we’ll be giving you some ways you can directly help the neighborhoods in Portland, Oregon. We’re excited to share with you the stories of their time with the people of Portland. They are an amazing and inspiring group doing beautiful things!
