Back to School KGW Portland Oregon

The 2024 KGW School Supply Drive is Here! 🎒 🚌

Downtown Self Storage is honored to join the KGW Back to School Drive again this year. We have been serving our Portland community for over 30 years, and providing school supplies to over 15,000 local children in need is incredibly meaningful to our team.

We hope you will join us! 

The KGW School Supply Drive collection period begins on August 1 and continues through August 31.

Summertime in the City

Although it feels like summer is endless, with sunny days, adventure, and marvelous times in the warm weather, children throughout Portland are out of school enjoying all that these amazing days have to offer. It's hard to believe that September is only a month away.

Many kids in our city find going back to school stressful. It's not made any easier by economic hardship. The team at Downtown Self Storage is thrilled to be once again a part of helping make it a little easier for underserved kids by joining the KGW School Supply Drive! Each year, local businesses work together with KGW News to collect donations to ensure that every child in our area starts the school year right. 

Make a Difference 

Drop off new school supplies at either of our Pearl District locations: Davis Street1305 NW Davis Street, Pearl District, Portland, or Johnson Street1304 NW Johnson Street, Pearl District, Portland.
