G.E.M. Member Sponsored Organizations

Having checked several possibilities to make the program more accessible, the Board of Gorge Ecumenical Ministries (GEM) has decided to end the Emergency Voucher Program which has been available at St. Mark's Episcopal Church on Fridays from 12 - 2 in Hood River.   

We are grateful for the work that is already happening through the Mid-Columbia Community Action Council (MCCAC) in Oregon and the Washington Gorge Action Programs (WAGAP) in Washington. They will provide far greater access for people in need of the services that the Emergency Voucher Program provided.

The money that has been contributed to the Emergency Voucher Program to date will be split between MCCAC (mccac.com) and WAGAP (wagap.org). We encourage you to support one or both of these programs in the future.
