Bennington — Evan Yost celebrated his eighth birthday May 20 with 35 of his friends, but instead of asking for gifts, he asked everyone to bring donations for the homeless. He asked his friends to bring towels, socks or blankets, which he then donated to Portland Rescue Mission. “I want everyone in the world to have a good life, and you don’t want people sleeping on the streets not having a good life,” Evan said in a news release. Chick-fil-A Cascade Park worked with Portland Rescue Mission to provide catering for Evan’s birthday celebration, which had a Seahawks theme.
