Our community is AMAZING the support we receive and kind words keep us going each year. We received this beautiful message that is to great to not share with all of you. Messages like this is the reason we do this. Thank you Port and Hopper for the encouraging words and the support! ๐โค๏ธ๐โค๏ธ๐
Hello,
I'm Adrin, and my husband Eric and I own Port Hopper in Downtown.
We love the work the Astoria Christmas Club performs each year, yet we weren't aware of scale until we opened our shop in December of 2023. We've always adored the charm of Astoria during the Holidays, and celebrating the shop's anniversary every Christmas is extra special.
For the moment, we run the shop on our own, 7 days a week, so our availability to volunteer is quite limited, but we would love to help out in other ways!
We wanted to ask if you offer sponsorships? We'd like to donate $500 this year to the Christmas Club, and be involved in support in the future. Beyond financial donations, we would like to promote the Christmas Club within the store and encourage our guests to make donations that we could gather on your behalf, if that's something you'd be interested in!
Also, we purchase products from various wholesalers and businesses across the globe and could potentially help by being able to bring in decorations or supplies at wholesale cost. We would not charge anything for this, but it's a unique way for us to use the connections we have to help out.
Let us know what you think, we're looking forward to helping you all in your success in bringing the spirit and the light to downtown year after year.
Enjoy your weekend!
