For this year’s Give!Guide season, Boys & Girls Clubs of Portland Metro’s partners are offering donors of $10 a free smoothie from Jamba Juice; those who give $25 receive a bonus Buy One Get One free certificate from Dutch Bros! And our partners at Pavelcomm have promised to match the first $2,500 in donations — give today to double your impact!
