Featured Concierge

Donna “Gigi” La Rossa

Gigi is our first member representing Ashland, and southern Oregon. In fact, she is the first member of the PCA from outside the greater Portland Metro/ Vancouver area!  Gigi  started working at the Ashland Springs Hotel in Ashland, OR in December 2009 and has been an invaluable asset to not only her hotel’s guests, but a key partner with the PCA for our visitors traveling up & down the I-5 corridor.  Her years of experience in the travel industry and an incredible knowledge of Southern Oregon give her guests and the PCA an indispensable source of information about anything and everything in and around Southern Oregon.   Gigi has worked especially hard at developing relationships with her area businesses and helping to educate those unfamiliar with concierge services, while in turn learning about all the services and products being provided.  Gigi is passionate about creating  unique and memorable experiences for visitors and encourages them to not only enjoy the town of Ashland, but to explore all that Oregon has to offer.  It is this spirit of exploration that led Gigi to reach out to the Portland Concierge Association and the realization that  combining our shared knowledge greatly benefits her guests and ours –  and helps encourage visitors to see more of the great state of Oregon.

Portland Concierges Participate in Portland Aids Walk

For the third year in a row, the Portland Concierge Association participated in the Portland AIDS Walk on October 3rd, 2010. The association has made the Portland AIDS Walk our annual communtiy involvement and charity volunteer event.   In addition to raising money in support of Cascade AIDS Project and forming at team for the walk, we also volunteer at the VIP Red Ribbon Breakfast and lend our hospitality skills to help welcome  the invited dignitaries, celebrities, key donors, and major fundraisers.  The PCA raised $1600 for this charity this year and  joined an estimated 10,000+ people gathering in downtown Portland to support HIV/AIDS prevention, care, and support services in Oregon and SW Washington.
