OUR VENDORS
A t the heart o f Street Roots' mission are its hard working and dedicated vendors. Vendors buy Street Roots fo r 25 cents and sell the paper
for $1. More than 50 vendors sell Street Roots in the Portland metro area and Vancouver. Each vendor can be identified by a vendor badge
and each is assigned to a specific territory. Vendors are empowered not only in their w ork to sell the paper, but many also contribute as
writers and production assistants. The money they earn helps them meet basic housing, food and health care needs.
