Mailbox Muffins

Mailbox Muffins is a compilation of recipes written by the homeless people of Oregon Place. All proceeds go to The Oregon Place Apartments.

The Oregon Place is not a homesless shelter, but it does offer apartments to homeless people who might otherwise be sleeping in the woods. The apartment rent is income based.Tenants must earn less than 50 percent of the area median income, which is $26,250 for a family of four, to qualify. The nonprofit agencies work with tenants, helping them sign up for the support and training they need to regain financial independence and permanent homes. Leases at The Oregon Place run six months, with no deposit.
