Where we’re going

As a new nonprofit building capacity, InTensions For Good aims to scale its impact in 2026 with ambitious yet achievable goals

Increase Service Frequency

Expand meal distribution from once to twice per week to reach more individuals consistently, addressing the high demand for food among unhoused populations.

Secure a Commercial Kitchen

Transition to a rented commercial kitchen to boost capacity, enabling the preparation of larger quantities of meals and additional items like baked goods.

Triple Output and Reach

Scale production from 100 to over 300 lunches per week, tripling the number of people served and amplifying the nonprofit’s community impact.

Deepen Community Impact

Continue prioritizing compassion and connection, ensuring growth maintains the organization’s core mission of neighbors helping neighbors through sustainable, caring, and dignified support.

These goals reflect InTensions For Good’s commitment to scaling operations thoughtfully while staying rooted in its mission of compassion and community care. By leveraging sustainable practices and community donations, the nonprofit is poised to create lasting, meaningful change in Portland.
