What began as a social club, founded in 1938, at the University of Portland has since developed into an institution unique among its kind in Portland's oldest and deepest 'poverty pocket', the Old Town/Chinatown area. Today, not only does the original Blanchet House of Hospitality, at 340 NW Glisan Street, founded in 1952 continue to offer to the poor: free meals, beds, jobs, and HOPE, but it has been joined by two more properties to become a multi-unit complex of charitable endeavors. The scope of Blanchet House of Hospitality has grown to include Blanchet Farm in Carlton, OR, and Mr. Riley's Place at 615 NW 18th.
