Supporting Survivors, One Bag at a Time
Learn how LifeSource Bag Credit Donations support the Center for Hope & Safety

About the Center for Hope and Safety
The Center for Hope & Safety (CHS) has been serving victims of sexual assault, domestic violence, stalking, and human trafficking in Marion County for more than 50 years.
CHS provides advocacy in person and over the phone on their 24/7 bilingual crisis hotline. They connect survivors to vital resources, support groups, emergency shelter, and help with protective orders.
Over the past year, their program received more than 38,000 contacts, provided over 17,000 nights of shelter, and reached hundreds of people through education and outreach in our community and across Oregon.

How LifeSource Bag Credit Donations Work
LifeSource credits you 10¢ for each reusable bag you use, and 5¢ for each reusable bulk container. You can keep that credit if you want, or you can choose to direct it to the local nonprofit we’ve selected for the month. This month, it’s the Center for Hope & Safety.
Monthly Impact of Your Donations
It depends how much our customers have allocated in Bag Credit Donations! But those nickels and dimes add up. In December, for example, we donated $911.21 to Liberty House. As soon as we’ve calculated the previous month’s total, we’ll post it on the big screen above the checkout lanes at the front of the store.
