Be Your Best Cottage Grove

Be Your Best Cottage Grove Addressing Health through Collective Action
Social determinants of health are the conditions in which people are born, grow, live, work, and age.

These circumstances are shaped by the distribution of resources at global, national, and local levels. Be Your Best is a cross-sector coalition of community partners based in Cottage Grove, OR. The coalition emerged in response to the Lane County Community Health Needs Assessment (CHNA). The coalition uses a collective impact approach to improve family and community health. Be Your Best engages ma

rginalized and disenfranchised communities to inform and guide their efforts. Partners included: United Way of Lane County, South Lane School District, PeaceHealth, Lane County Public Health, South Lane Mental Health, The Child Center, Family Relief Nursery, Sustainable Cottage Grove and other businesses, civic partners and faith-based organizations.

Friends, in light of the uncertainty surrounding SNAP benefits, we want to do something to help ensure kids and families dont go to bed hungry in our South Lane County Community. We need to use our collective strength and generosity to rally around those facing hunger.

In that spirit, Saginaw Vineyard is doing a special promotion to encourage food donations, which we will get to people-in-need by partnering with the Blackberry Food Co-op in the Cottage Grove Public Market, which will perform the distribution.

Beginning today, Saturday, we will be doing our β€œPinot for a Penny” special. If you bring in four or more non-perishable food items, we will sell you a glass of our 2016 Pinot Noir, or the Three Acres Rose, for just a penny! Additionally, you can purchase any wine or beer for 10% off.

Our inventory has its limits, but Saginaw Vineyard will commit as much as we can to encourage donations, and do our best to continue this promotion for as long as necessary. Check back here for updates.
