#PDXThanksYou - A Note from our Mayor | All Saints Episcopal Church

Portland,

Our friends in cities around the world are sharing a nightly cheer to honor and thank health care workers who are on the frontlines of the COVID-19 pandemic.

WATCH: Italy, Spain, Vancouver, and India – to name a few. It’s incredibly moving.

Let’s join them!

Our nurses, doctors, and first responders continue to risk their health and well-being every single day to make sure the sickest among us get the care they need. Other community heroes like grocery store employees, delivery drivers, chefs, and others make sure we have food on the table. Let’s boost the morale for all those who are struggling as well - a nightly reminder that no one is alone.

So here’s what you can do. Set your alarms for 7 pm nightly.

Step outside on your balcony, front porch, or open a window and cheer for our heroes. Use your pots and pans if you’d like.

We begin the nightly ritual this FRIDAY.

We will continue the nightly cheering until the deadly impact of COVID-19 is a thing of the past.

Please help spread the word. Include #PDXThanksYou to get the word out.

History will look back at this moment and see a community rise together and support each other in ways that seemed unimaginable even just a few weeks ago.

Stay strong, Portland.

We’ll get through this together.

Sincerely,

Ted Wheeler
