Community Involvement
How Advertising Solutions Gets Involved Locally
Advertising Solutions is proud to play an active role in our community and support local businesses and artists, as well as worthy causes such as the Oregon Food Bank, Marion-Polk Food Share, and the American Diabetes Association.
First Friday's Oregon City & Local Artist Showcase
Currently Advertising Solutions is helping to plan the local First Friday celebrations at our flagship office in Historic Downtown Oregon City.
This is a downtown-wide event each first Friday of the summer months from 5pm to 8pm. Nearly all local businesses are involved, from shopping, local food, drinks, and some venues on certain Fridays will even have live music and entertainment.
Advertising Solutions is currently participating by offering free adult and kid-friendly beverages and snacks, as well as showcasing original artwork by local artists displayed and for sale on-location.
ADA Annual Gala Auction
From 2003 until 2007, Advertising Solutions donated its services to be auctioned off to the highest bidder at the Annual Gala Auction to benefit the American Diabetes Association.
Annual Great Holiday Food Drive
The Annual Great Holiday Food Drive originated after the wake of 9/11. We at Advertising Solutions felt a need to create an annual event to foster community outreach and support. The result was the Annual Great Holiday Food Drive to benefit the hungry here locally.
From December of 2001 through 2010, this event supported the Oregon Food Bank, and as of 2006 had grown to support the Marion-Polk Food Share as well. Plans are to revitalize the program in new, more wide-reaching ways; we would like to see this event continue to grow bringing both businesses and communities together to help a worth cause; the hungry. This is definitely a food drive of a different kind. Please visit the Great Holiday Food Drive's website for more information on the event and how you can help.
