Welcome to Friends of Portland NET

It’s been a year since we gathered for the 30th Anniversary of the NET program. In that year, more NETs have been trained and joined the program, teams have continued to both rebuild and grow, and all NETs have improved their skills to be ready to help their neighbors in times of disaster.

Mark your calendars for Saturday, June 21, 2025 from 10:00 am – 12:00 noon for the NET Annual Meeting. We’ll have food, fellowship, speakers, recognition awards, and a few surprises along the way.

We will be gathering at Rose City Park UMC (which hosts a wide variety of community groups and activities), centrally located at NE Sandy Blvd. and NE Alameda.

There is no ticket price for the event but donations will be gratefully accepted. All sponsorships and donations, no matter the size, will be recognized at the event on the screen because we appreciate all of you! Donations can be made by clicking here.

While this is no ticket price, we would like folks to register for the event. You can do that clicking here.
