Serving up Pancakes

People say the best way to start the day is with breakfast – the most important meal of the day…so earlier this week the cascade team stopped by New Avenues for Youth to help with the important meal. 
 
As big fans of the mission of New Avenues for Youth – an organization in downtown Portland offering programs and services to to help homeless and at-risk youth in our community. Our initial experiences with the organization came through their social enterprise as a Ben & Jerry’s Partner Shop with a relationship to the Portland Net Impact community.
 
Kyle, Chris and I enjoyed our visit making pancakes, tater tots and scrambled egg while chatting with the youth. 
 
It was a great way to start the day and we encourage other businesses in Portland to do the same.
 
Looking forward to helping in the future. And we kept hearing from the youth that Kyle makes amazing pancakes.
