Description

Since 2013, nonprofit Holla has matched students of color in east Portland with adult mentors. It was of three dozen organizations that lost grant funding from the Portland Children's Levy after members of the City Council voted to remand the initiative's entire $64 million spending package earlier this month.

The letter Eric Knox received in late April was a game changer for his organization Holla, which matches students of color in east Portland with adult mentors.
