The youth in our community have always been an important element in the day to day operations of Blanchet. After all, the founders of Blanchet were all college graduates in their mid-twenties when they started serving meals in 1952.
Every year over 1,000 high school students from the Portland metropolitan area volunteer their time serving at Blanchet. Many middle-school students, college students and graduates beginning their careers spend time volunteering at Blanchet. The energy and good cheer they show to our guests and to others working in our facility is an inspiration.
