April 11th Auction at John Ross
The Oregonian reported today that The John Ross tower on the South Waterfront will have an auction at 1pm on April 30th in order to help meet their goal of selling out the tower by the end of 2010.

“Matt Cares” Referral Program– Latest News
The “Matt Cares” Referral Program has been a part of my business for almost two years now. It is basically my small way of encouraging charity and volunteerism in my community with myself and my clients. If you refer me on to a new client, I will donate a portion of my commission to the non-profit or charity of your choice, in your name. It is a little way to say thank you that hopefully helps the recipient organization. Here are a few of the organizations where I have recently made donations:
Virginia Garcia Memorial Hospital-Providing Medical Care to Migrant and Indigent Populations
Dove Lewis Emergency Animal Hospital-Portland’s Only Non-profit Emergency and Critical Care Animal Hospital
Oregon Public Broadcasting-Public Broadcasting for Oregon and Southwest Washington
