Glad to support this wonderful compilation of Portland musicians to help raise money for people of the community! Please donate!
More infos here:

"The theme of "For Home" is solidarity — solidarity with fellow musicians and solidarity with the folks who are impacted the most during the current crisis.
The album will be released as a name-your-price digital album on Bandcamp on Tuesday, April 28th. All proceeds will go to the Portland Coronavirus Mutual Aid Fund (https://opencollective.com/portland-corona-virus-mutual-aid…).
Created by Symbiosis PDX, this mutual aid fund allows people impacted by the COVID-19 crisis to make direct requests for emergency funds. Symbiosis PDX is also coordinating with the larger Portland COVID-19 Mutual Aid Network.
