ADOPT-A-BENCH PROGRAM - TEMPORARILY ON HIATUS

Due to staff transition, the Adopt-A-Bench Program is temporarily on hiatus.

We acknowledge how meaningful this program is and apologize for any disappointment this may cause. Please check back in February 2020.

Thank you.

A PARK BENCH CAN BE MORE THAN JUST A PLACE TO SIT

The Adopt-A-Bench Program is an opportunity to share a meaningful space while enhancing our parks for the enjoyment of all.

Portland Parks & Recreation (PP&R) has built over 2,000 park benches, and since the 1980s, more than 250 of these benches have been adopted and maintained by community members like you—providing a place to sit, reflect, celebrate, and remember.
