Do you like great Portland cuisine? Do you like helping kids in need in the Portland area see the Trail Blazers play in person? You can combine those passions TODAY at ¿Por Qué No? Taqueria at 3524 N Mississippi Ave in Portland. The restaurant is running a special day of giving where 10% of your purchase will be used to supply tickets for local kids (and the teachers, counselors, and coaches who bring them) to see the Blazers play the Charlotte Hornets on Tuesday, March 10th through Blazer’s Edge Night.
BE Night is our annual event where we send a thousand or two kids from underserved communities to the Moda Center, free of charge! The adults in their lives write in to request tickets. Our readers donate same. We hand them over to them directly! It’s a community-changing event and it’s as easy as purchasing tickets for your own self! Or in this case, enjoying a good meal.
If you want to donate tickets directly, without the food involved, the [website is right here](https://trailblazers.spinzo.com/blazers-edge-night-portland-trail-blazers-vs-charlotte-hornets-2026-03-10-FAPMJ?group=blazers-edge-xw4g). But if you’re going to eat today anyway, if you head to [Por Que No Taqueria](https://porquenotacos.square.site/), the MISSISSIPPI AVENUE LOCATION ONLY (3524 N Mississippi Ave). Again, 10% of your order will go towards tickets for kids! Por Que No is already one of the best places in town to eat. This makes it even better!
Whether you donate directly or have some grub as you share the love, please help out! We’re behind on donations this year and the window is closing. Both we and the kids appreciate your help!
