About Community Kindness of Eastern Oregon
Serving Our Community
Our mission would mean nothing if we didn't act on it. So, we participate in and create programs that we feel benefit the people of Eastern Oregon. We want to be an example and help you find even the simplest way that you can serve through an act of kindness.
Over 6 Years Giving & Showing Charity
Community Kindness of Eastern Oregon first opened our doors in 2019. Originally we occupied only a single floor and only part of that floor. Fast forward 6 years, now we occupy the entire section of our building including 3 floors. We're excited to help our community as we continue to grow. Thank you for all of your support and for choosing kindness.
Thrift Store: Our Vibrant Hub of Compassion
The Community Kindness Thrift Store is the central hub of all we do. In the Thrift Store you'll find a team of volunteers and the faces of Community Kindness of Eastern Oregon, Liz and Grant Meyer. They're known for their warm and welcoming demeanor, ensuring that every visitor feels valued and appreciated.
Community Kindness of Eastern Oregon is more than just a nonprofit thrift store. It is a vibrant hub of compassion, creativity, and community, making it a must-visit location in Union County, Oregon.
Fun Ways to Support Our Mission of Kindness
In our quest to help our local community we're always looking for new and interesting ways to accomplish this mission. Like our Men of Union County Calendar, which provided a unique chance to directly impact our local community and include locals in our efforts. Or our Ladies' Naughty Night Bingo. We're proud of how this project turned out.
Keep watch for other unique and fun opportunities.

Liz & Grant - Our Story
We don’t really want to spend a lot of time talking about ourselves, but we very much believe in all that we do. We, Liz and Grant Meyer, wanted to make as much of a difference as we could in our local community. So we created Community Kindness of Eastern Oregon. It takes a lot of time, organization, and hard work. We've spent many months and years getting everything prepared and getting Community Kindness to where it is now.
Thank you to everyone who has supported our mission and continues to do so! You mean the world to us!
Why The British Theme?
Grant is from Elgin, Oregon.
Liz is from Yorkshire, England.
We met each other in Manchester, England over 30 years ago.
For us it made sense to incorporate Liz's nationality and our relationship's history into something else that means so much to us!
Kindness Is Never Wasted
One small act of kindness can have a significant impact in someone’s life, from a phone call with an isolated loved one to helping a stranger carry their groceries.
We know it’s neither possible, nor realistic, for our small organization to serve everyone or accomplish everything we’d like to, but we will never let that stop us from working to do all that is within our hearts.
Remember, part of our mission is to also provide you a means to give and show charity. Not sure what you can do, or where to start?
