This year, which was the third edition of the Lupine market, students chose Opal Creek Ancient Forest Center and Portland-based Family Dogs New Life Shelter as destinations for the event’s proceeds.
“This is what all students do to apply their learning,” Taylor said.
Megan Selvig, Opal Creek’s program coordinator, said she only found out about the market a few days ago and is elated to have developed such a partnership.
“It’s so creative, not just the economic learning part of it but jut the teaching students about charitable giving at a young age,” Selvig said.
