Welcome to Mainspring!

Mainspring addresses economic hardship, including food insecurity for families and seniors.

Office hours and donation times are 9:00am - 3:00pm, Monday - Thursday.

We are a voice for change, raising awareness and building partnerships to address the root causes of economic hardship, including food and clothing insecurity. Mainspring is a non-profit organization focused on providing equitable comprehensive services to meet the basic needs of residents within and beyond Portland.

Sock-Tober is here!

All October long, our friends at Here We Go Again Deluxe Resale Boutique are hosting their 8th Annual Sock Drive.

For every pair of socks you purchase, they will donate a pair of white crew socks to Mainspring Community Pantry.

Stop by their cozy shop and pick up some fun new socks, perfect for cool fall days, holiday stockings, or gift exchanges. Your purchase helps keep our neighbors’ feet and hearts warm this season.
