Evan Zimmerman wins Iron Bartender
The Second Annual Iron Bartender was so much fun! We raised over $20,000 to support programs and services for at-risk children that night. Mixologist Evan Zimmerman from Laurelhurst Market won first place with his “Scandinavian Sour” in the competition (held on Jan 21). Zimmerman competed against Neil Kopplin of Clyde Common, Elizabeth Markham of Beaker & Flask and Jacob Grier of Carlyle Restaurant. More than 200 people came out to show their support and sample the creations. Iron Bartender Evan Zimmerman will be featured on May 22 at Portland Iron Chef.

Diaper Drive with a Mission - A Huge Success
Sharing the results of our Diaper Drive is a pleasure! Our original goal was 6,000 diapers, which would fulfill our needs through the end of the year. Our dedicated donors let us know how much they support our mission by donating diapers and cash totaling 19,251 diapers!! This means that for the next 18 months our diaper expenses are eliminated meaning more funding can be directed to our services.

And what a diverse group of supporters stepped up to "cover" our needs-individuals, families, church groups, service organizations and all types of businesses and corporations. Your incredible generosity reinforces just how dedicated you are to understanding the impact that we can make by working together. Please accept our deepest gratitude for all of you who helped make the diaper drive such a huge success!

A special thank you goes to the interns and employees of Moss Adams LLC Portland for contributing more than half of all diapers donated.

New Seasons Benefit Barbecue Successful on Many Levels
One of New Seasons Markets' favorite ways to support local non-profit organizations is by hosting weekend benefit barbecues. 100% of the money raised goes directly to the chosen organization and Children's Relief Nursery was selected to be part of the series in August, receiving $8,500 in proceeds!

Children's Relief Nursery provided 54 volunteers to lend a hand with the barbecue, which was held at all nine stores in the Portland area. Equally important to raising funds was "raising friends" by reaching out and sharing our mission and really connecting with so many people. From new volunteers to new donors the benefit barbecue was a huge success!

We want to thank our dedicated volunteers who gave up their weekend to help make a difference. For those of you who attended the event---thank you! And last but not least a special thank you to all nine of the New Seasons Markets whose great staff helped us serve up more than 1,000 burgers!
