Thank you to all who helped meet $70,000 Challenge Grant goal

Thank you to all who contributed to William Temple House during October, November and December. Your wonderful gifts surpassed $70,000 allowing the William Temple House to meet its Challenge Grant goal and to receive an additional $70,000 from a local foundation and three of our own Board members.

Check back for additional information on how your gifts will help provide mental health counseling, and food, clothing and other emergency assistance to families in need during 2009.


Snow delays but doesn't dampen holiday spirits as families in need receive food and gifts

December's deep snow and tough road conditions delayed but isn't preventing William Temple House donors and volunteers from bringing holiday spirit to 60 families in need.

Holiday Gifts

Food boxes including a turkey, potatoes, cranberry sauce, stuffing, vegetables and fresh oranges are being distributed this week in time for a New Year's feast. Parents are also selecting toys, clothes and other gifts for their children because of the generosity of William Temple House's donors including the Muramatsu family, KGW's annual toy drive, Trader Joe's and the Sunshine Division.FoodBox

Mackenzie House still on market

Mackenzie House and Abbott Hall, the headquarters of William Temple House, remains on the market. In June 2007 the agency's Board of Directors authorized the sale of the building. Board members believe that the decision allows William Temple House to fulfill its primary mission of serving the community with counseling and social services and protects the financial stability of the agency.
