The Street Trust
Mission
The Street Trust advocates for and expands safe, accessible and equitable multimodal transportation options for all of us - including the 30% of Oregonians who don't drive. Whether you walk, roll, bike, or take transit, we are working towards a safe, complete, sustainable transportation system that builds equity in access, health, and prosperity for everyone.
Bottom Line for Portland
Safe, accessible transportation for all is not an optional “extra.” It's a vital lifeline to the grocery store, school, jobs, healthcare and community — especially for non-drivers. Every day without dedicated investments in sidewalks, bike lanes, safe crossings and multimodal options is another day we risk lives and miss opportunities to connect.
Through community safety, education and advocacy at every level of government, The Street Trust is working to save lives from traffic violence, solve the transportation funding crisis, and build a safer, more complete system across our region. Join us in the fight for safe streets for all!

BIG GIVE DAYS:
- ☕ 11/1: Big Coffee Day
Set your coffee maker's timer and get up early to get the goods! The first 10 donors today will get a brand new The Street Trust: Street Party edition t-shirt, a warm beanie, TST sticker, and a cycling beaver pin to make you smile!
🖼 11/19: Drinks Day
The VERY LAST donor on Big Drinks Day will win a rare Bud Clark-signed "Expose yourself to art" framed poster. Before he was the “citizen" and “bike to work” mayor, Bud Clark kept Portland drinking as the owner of the Goose Hollow Inn. May the most sober (and awake!) win.
🍎🛒 12/17: Big Groceries Day
Everyone who gives today will be entered to win a $20 Laughing Planet gift certificate… because grocery shopping during the holidays is stressful, and you deserve a smoothie or a burrito 🌯!
- 🚲 12/29: Big E-bike Day!
Did you know that our Ride2Own program helps people in underserved neighborhoods ride their way to owning their own electric bike at no cost? That’s why we especially ❤️ E-bike Day — and are giving anyone who gives today will get a chance to win The Street Trust safe riding kit with a reflective safety vest, hat, shirt, bike bell, “Bike Love” flag, clip-on light, and a cooling scarf (for when summer finally comes back around).
