HOOD RIVER NEWS | Hood River, Ore.
Soroptimist presents trio with ‘Live Your Dream’ awards
Three Gorge area women
have each received a $1,500
Live Your Dream Award from
Soroptimist International of
Hood River (SIHR).
Audra Moffett and Angela
Velazquez of Hood River
and Michelle Knight of The
Dalles received their checks
the evening of March 11.
The Live Your Dream
Awards provide financial as-
sistance to women who have
primary financial responsi-
bility for their household and
who are enrolled in school to
better their economic future.
Since the Live Your Dream
Award is not a scholarship,
the funds can be used for
any educational expenses,
including tuition, childcare,
transportation or textbooks,
said a press release.
Said S oroptimist Kate
Dougherty, “‘We want our
community to know that the
funds we raise are placed
into the hands of real women,
working hard to improve
their future and the future of
their families.”
Funds to support the Live
Your Dream Awards are
raised each year at events
such as the Soroptimist
women’s film series, “Lunaf-
est, Films about Women, for
Women and by Women.”
LunaFest, which had been
scheduled for April 8-9, at
the Center for the Arts in
Hood River, has been post-
poned.

ROOTS: Adapting events
continued from B2
for us, nobody protested, but
today we bring our voices, our
drums, our tsuru spirit to speak
out against unjust mass incar-
ceration.”
We encourage you to pick up
origami paper at the Riverside
Community Church office, The
Next Door, Inc. reception desk
and the Hood River News office.
Origami paper is being provided
by the Odell Hispanic Health
Promotion and Drug Preven-
tion Coalition in support of
healthy practices and inspiring
hope among those oppressed.
Videos on the Tsuru for Solidar-
ity website demonstrate how
to fold the cranes and securely
string them together. You are
encouraged to mail them to
the Tsuru for Solidarity head-
quarters, National Japanese
American Historical Society,
1684 Post Street San Francisco,
CA 94115, or display them in
your homes or businesses as a
sign of hope. The cranes folded
on Minoru Yasui Day and in the
coming months through May
30 will be used to inspire hope
and solidarity with all children,
families and communities who
are being unjustly detained or
imprisoned, are under attack or
not being treated with the digni-
ty and respect they deserve.
■
We are disappointed that
we have had to adapt these
events because they serve as the
inspiration for activists young
and old. But in the spirit of Min
Yasui and recognition of our
health experts’ recommenda-
tions we absolutely will err on
the side of health and safety.
You can participate individu-
ally, as a family or in a small
group. Click on the QR code and

and why we honor his life work
in social justice. Take care of one
another, protect the most vul-
nerable and learn more at the
