(Portland, OR) -- Portland's self-governed homeless shelter Dignity Village celebrated its 25th anniversary Sunday with a fundraiser to help offset recent budget cuts. Founded in 2000, the community-run shelter houses up to 60 people nightly and has inspired similar programs nationwide. Organizers say the loss of county funding for staff and basic services has strained operations, leaving volunteers to cover critical needs. Proceeds from the event will go toward restoring services and repairing the village's aging infrastructure.
