Kenton Business Association

Wanted to share my post from

Through some kind Portlanders, I helped uncover this weekend, that a man who had been abducted by 🧊 in SE over a week ago was the “missing” adult son of our community member Maria Julia, owner of Boom Boom Balloons, who we’ve all been worried about with the loss of her business, likely due to arson.

Now, the unimaginable has been piled on. We are working with friends at the city and neighbors who have seen my post to do everything we can to escalate Julia’s need to know where her son is and what can be done for him to state officials.

I’ve been warned that 🧊 has refused to provide basic details to our state officials, about the wellness and whereabouts of our neighbors who have been kidnapped, but we will continue to work together however we can to help.

There is a link in our BIO to the fundraiser for Julia that neighbors created in the wake of the fire, and we are helping to get the word out as there is now a need to raise funds for legal recourse.

Please donate if you are able.

We will add some posts to our stories for local ways to get involved in the process of protection.
