Friends of the Children - Central Oregon is a chapter of a national non-profit that is breaking the cycle of generational poverty by giving children born into disparities the ability to create a new story. We do this by providing the most vulnerable children with a long-term, salaried, professional mentor, who we call a "Friend," from kindergarten through high school graduation, 12-1/2 years - no matter what!
