“I give because of who we grant to, who the board comprises, and because our foundation values — especially equity — are consistent with my personal values. I give because donations go directly to the community, with no overhead. And I give because our grants reduce health disparities, are delivered with cultural humility, and promote involvement, respect, and community.”
— Jessica Binkley, PsyD, board member

“My relationship with The Portland Clinic goes back 60 years: My grandmother was a nurse there, and it was The Portland Clinic’s Dr. Ambrose Shields who told my mother that she was pregnant with me.
“I grew up in Southeast Portland, and at times, my parents didn’t have two nickels to rub together. The social welfare net was critically important in my life—a lot of people stepped up to make my life better because they felt it was the right thing to do.
“That’s why I give back now. I believe that as a society, it’s our obligation and privilege to invest in the community as best we can, and supporting The Portland Clinic Foundation is a great way to do that. I think The Portland Clinic Foundation is uniquely positioned to leverage the good work of the Clinic’s physicians and employees in order to give back to the community in a way that is consistent with their mission and values.”
— Mike Larson, CPA and board vice chair
