MISSION STATEMENT
- REALITY KITCHEN, located at 245 Van Buren, Eugene 97402, is committed daily to reach out to the Whiteaker neighborhood and greater Lane County offering charitable and educational services and programs designed to nourish all learners, with and without disabilities, to grow personally, professionally, and imaginatively.
-
The ongoing work of Reality Kitchen is to join individuals and families together with a community of resources, skills and experiences they need to successfully transition from school to work; homelessness to residency; burdening dependency to self guided success, personal actualization and independence.
"THE LIBRARY" IS A FREE BOOK EXCHANGE !
Since 1997, "The Library" has been a part of the Oregon Country Fair. Families and kids of all ages, have enjoyed puppet shows, American Sign Language storytellers, performance and musical fun as well as the ongoing giving and receiving of many tens of thousands of free books !
Founding Librarian, Jim Evangelista, has hoped that "if everyone that comes to the Fair would bring a book for someone else, and they would find that special book that someone else brought just for them !" In keeping with that same spirit of giving, this experiment in community sharing, here in the Whit, is open year round to give the gift of reading to neighbors, one and all !
We will cheerfully accept your donations, of course, and even come pick them up if that helps !
