Volunteers dressed as Star Wars Mandalorians will deliver holiday gifts and supplies to kids at The Dougy Center for Grieving Children this Sunday, Dec. 15

WHEN: Sunday, December 15, 1:30 p.m.

WHO & WHAT: Members of the Concordia Clan, The Mandalorians Riding Club, in partnership with Rogue Toys, Excalibur Comics and the Nerd Out Bar, have been collecting toys and supplies for The Dougy Center for Grieving Children this holiday season. They will deliver the collected items dressed as Star Wars Mandalorian Bounty Hunters and present them to children who attend grief support groups at The Dougy Center.

WHERE: The Dougy Center, 3909 S.E. 52nd Ave. in Portland

WHY: The Dougy Center provides support for children, teens, young adults and their families who are grieving the death of a parent or sibling. Each month, The Dougy Center serves more than 550 children and 425 adult family members through peer support groups in Portland, Hillsboro, and Canby. Because the death of a family member can often bring financial hardship, The Dougy Center does not charge families for its support services and relies on generous donations from groups and individuals. The items collected and being delivered on Sunday will be used by kids and teens at The Dougy Center throughout the year.
