Agencies that provide social and human services in Oregon and southwest Washington have until 5 p.m. Sept. 7 to apply to The Oregonian/OregonLive's 2018 Season of Sharing campaign.

The Season of Sharing fundraising campaign is overseen each year by Oregonian Publishing Co. Public Benefits, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, which distributes the money collected and which covers almost all administrative costs.

Selected agencies and their needs are featured in The Oregonian/OregonLive during November and December. We are particularly interested this year in nonprofits that support literacy efforts and early childhood education.

Agencies wishing to apply to be featured can find the application online at oregonlive.com/sharing or by emailing wishbook@oregonian.com.
