Support the Architectural Heritage Center

Arciform has been a proud sponsor of the AHC for many years, and we invite you to support this wonderful organization.

The Architectural Heritage Center is all about saving historic buildings – and shaping the public policy and opinion to do so. As “home base” for historic preservation in the Portland metro area, the AHC loves to welcome people to their 1883 building, where they host programs, exhibits and research. When they “take history to the streets” with their popular and educational neighborhood architecture tours, they help show how our communities have been shaped in the past and inspire people to save them for the future.

Your tax-deductible gift by December 31st will help fund development of a new walking tour in 2015, and training for the dedicated volunteers who lead it. We invite you to accept a complimentary ticket to a walking tour in the coming year as a thank you for your contribution. We look forward to getting to know you in the coming year.

Who Do You Support?

What organizations do you support in Oregon?

Tell us in the comments and we’ll choose one organization to receive an additional $500 gift from Arciform.

Thank you for everything you do in our community!

Update: Thank you to everyone who participated in our “Who should we support in 2014?” contest. The staff of Arciform voted on your suggestions and we elected to give an additional $500 gift to the Opal Creek Ancient Forest Center through the Willamette Week Give!Guide. Thank you all for the wonderful suggestions and we invite you to take the opportunity to give one last gift in honor of a cause you believe in before the year ends. Thank you!

Support Snowdays

Arciform’s Client Services Manager, Spencer Fransway, is the Founder and Executive Director of an amazing organization that provides life skills through snowboarding for middle and high school students.

Spencer explains:

By working through challenges on the mountain, students gain self-confidence, strengthen friendships, and also have an opportunity to become more aware of their natural surroundings. The organizers of Snowdays have all reaped vast benefits from snow sports, learning to respect and care for the mountain environment, understanding the benefits of healthy lifestyle choices, and appreciating the joy that snow sports can bring. It is our hope to pass on this knowledge, excitement and passion to the students.

Snowdays is 100% volunteer run by those involved in the snowboard industry or passionate about the benefits of snowboarding.

Support Team in Training – the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society

Arciform’s Manager of Finances and Administration, Jennifer Barrow, has been raising funds for the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society in honor of her friend Lisa who lost her battle with cancer. She works with a team called Team Change through the Team in Training program that raises money for research and patient services. In return, her team is given the opportunity to run marathons and half-marathons throughout the region. Although Jennifer has already raised over $15,000 in support of this important work, she is not one to rest on her laurels. This year, she and her 15 teammates have set a goal to raise $100,000 in order to have a grant named after their team. You can help her reach her goal by contributing here, and remember to mention Arciform when you donate.
