Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Norway and Sweden who live in Oregon and Southwest
Washington. Scandinavians are the second largest ethnic group in our region

SHF is fulfilling its mission presently in a number of ways with programs,
events and lectures offered to the general public.
SHF has also created a linkage with other Scandinavian organizations through
