Northside, a very special community church in Newberg, is acting as a temporary host to the Harvest House overnight shelter while they search for a more permanent space to accommodate their houseless guests. The church has dedicated use of their multi-purpose hall for people to sleep every night, as well as serving them breakfast and dinner each day. We heard about the generosity of Northside to serve their community and are stepping-in to help.
The 4,000 square-foot space is ideal for this use, so we removed the existing carpet-tile flooring which was in desperate need of replacement. Northside has plans to continue utilizing the space to serve the local houseless community indefinitely, even if/when Harvest House moves to another location; we mobilized volunteers and partners to replace the flooring with LVT (Luxury Vinyl Tile).
Our generous partners at Paulson’s Floor Coverings donated all the flooring and adhesive, and Northside donated the underlayment and other materials needed.
Additionally, we finished the floor replacement much quicker than anticipated so we also repainted the space and closed the pass-through window in the kitchen. What a great way to kick-off the 2024 project season!
