What’s with the trees?

Though we want the work that we do and the community that we nurture to inspire positive change beyond Oregon and SW Washington, ORPIB recently renamed our Membership and Sustaining Sponsorship levels after iconic trees that grow where we live, acknowledging that the work we do is rooted in this place.

As with any community, the LGBTQ2SIA+ and ally business owners and professionals in ORPIB’s network are as varied as the leaves on any of the gorgeous evergreens enduring through every season here in the beautiful Pacific Northwest.
