DETAILS: The generous customers of Kells have been tossing up a bit o’ green throughout the year, and a little bit of Irish magic keeps the bills and coins on the ceiling until they are swept off before St. Patrick’s Day.
Children, staff and volunteers from the Center for Medically Fragile Children will be on hand (with umbrellas) to watch this annual event. The center is the only pediatric residential facility in the Northwest providing 24-hour skilled nursing care for children with profound disabilities and complex medical needs.
Kells will generously match the donations from the ceiling sweep. The event kicks off the Portland St. Patrick's Irish Festival, held Mar. 13 -17.
