Opportunities From: Serve Washington

On March 28, 2026, our community will gather for a rally and a march in Bellingham for No Kings Day, a powerful moment to affirm that democracy belongs to all of us.

We need volunteers in the following areas:

Art, Music & Creative Expression  /  Event Setup/Teardown  /  Logistics & Operations
  /  Welcome & Participant Experience  /  Food & Hospitality  /  March On-Route Support  /  Outreach, Promotion & Community Engagement  /  Program, Education & Media  /  Safety, Coordination & Accessibility  /  Transportation  / 

This rally is more than a gathering, it is a collective statement about the values we share and the future we want to shape together. Making it meaningful, welcoming, and impactful will take all of us. We are seeking volunteers to March and to support both the behind-the-scenes preparations and the essential day-of efforts that ensure the event runs smoothly and safely.

The Food Recovery Program (FRP) reduces food insecurity and addresses climate change by redistributing surplus food that might end up in the landfill to neighbors experiencing hunger. The FRP acts as a courier of commercially prepared, surplus food, to meal distribution agencies, with about 50% of the recovered food distributed to residents in food deserts within Whatcom County. The FRP relies on its close relationships with donating businesses, recipient agencies, and volunteer pool. The VISTA member will strengthen the FRP’s capacity by increasing the number of donor businesses, increasing our volunteer pool, and developing strong relationships with existing and new recipient agencies.

Our services focus on both conflict prevention and conflict intervention and include mediation, training, facilitation, coaching, supervised visitation, and community education for youth, adults, families, organizations, and businesses throughout Whatcom County.

The goal of this VISTA project is to increase low income clients’ access to conflict prevention and intervention services by building and promoting awareness of the organization, helping to secure vital financial resources, and ensuring the efficiency and efficacy of systems used to do so. In building on the work of the previous VISTA position, this role will deepen our outreach to underserved communities in rural areas, non-English speakers, and those who belong to specific demographic or cultural groups. Similarly the Development and Outreach VISTA will help to grow funding for projects and programs that specifically benefit low income individuals and help to increase the accessibility of our programs.

The overwhelming majority of children and families impacted by the foster care system experience poverty. 

Skookum Kids contributes to these children and families having support like access to safe housing, medical attention, nutritious meals, and recreational opportunities, which will help them break out of the cycle of poverty. Every program within Skookum Kids relies heavily on compassionate, competent, and committed volunteers, foster parents, and donors. The AmeriCorps VISTA will build capacity by improving Skookum Kids’ volunteer and foster parent recruitment and retention efforts, cultivating business and individual donors, seeking event donations, and sharing stories of impact.

Skyline Adventures needs volunteers to come up to the mountain at Bluewood and help kids and teens from Ochoa Middle School and Danner Farms: getting warm outer clothing on, latching boots, and off to their lessons.  After the lessons and lunch, we need the volunteers to free-ski or snowboard with the kids until 2:30 pm.  Then we need extra hands to hang up all of the used gear.  Afterwards, you can ski all you want until Bluewood closes. 

Ochoa Middle School in Pasco, Washington, serves a high percentage of economically disadvantaged students. 

Danner Farms is a non-profit that provides mentoring to at-risk youth

http://www.dannerfarms.org/index.html

Details: arrive at the Skyline lodge at 8:30am. We will give you a free lift ticket. Around 9am the kids arrive and we get them outfitted in snow gear and help them pick up their rental equipment.  Once ready to go, we help the kids get to their lesson that Bluewood provides.  For lunch, everyone gets a lunch ticket and goes into the main lodge to grab their meal.  After lunch, the kids get to free ski until 2:30pm. We like to make sure there is a volunteer with the kids in case they need help getting up after a fall and to make sure they don't go down any black diamond routes. 

There will be a seasoned volunteer up on the mountain as well so just bring yourself, your gear, and we will show you the rest. -If you don't have skis or a snowboard let us know and we can arrange those for you at no charge.

Bellingham At Home (BAH), a non-profit membership organization, is a virtual Village in Bellingham WA empowering older adults to stay active and engaged while living in their own homes and neighborhoods.  It is a program of the Whatcom Council on Aging.

The Village is powered by volunteers who provide “good neighbor” assistance to older folks in our community. Volunteers provide transportation to medical appointments and other services in Bellingham, take members shopping, provide companionship, complete light home repairs and garden maintenance, and other tasks as needed.  (BAH does NOT provide medical assistance, personal care, nor ongoing cleaning and maintenance tasks.)

If you are searching for opportunities to use your skills to support the Bellingham community and enjoy talking with interesting people who have many life experiences to share, you’d make a great BAH volunteer. Most assistance requests are for 2-hour time slots and you can let us know when you are available.  There is no weekly commitment; flexibility to meet your own schedule. BAH members reward our volunteers with their most grateful appreciation!

Office volunteers staff the volunteer desk in the Bellingham at Home office.

Tasks include:

JA Mobile Finance Park is a hands‑on budgeting simulation for middle and high school students where they are given a real‑life scenario, including a career, income, family responsibilities, and financial obligations. The students are challenged to manage their money based on the financial situation they received. Students move through a series of stations where they make choices about housing, transportation, food, savings, insurance, and other everyday expenses, all while balancing their budgets and adjusting to unexpected costs.

As a JA Mobile Finance Park volunteer, you’ll serve as a personal finance coach, working with a small group of students as they navigate the simulation. Your role is to guide discussion, ask questions, and help students think through their financial decisions. Volunteers encourage problem‑solving, reinforce budgeting concepts, and help students understand how today’s choices can impact their future.

No prior teaching or finance experience is required. All training, materials, and on‑site support are provided, and Junior Achievement staff will be available throughout the day to assist. This fast‑paced, engaging experience allows volunteers to make a direct, meaningful impact by helping students build confidence, critical thinking skills, and financial awareness.

Your time and real‑world perspective play a vital role in making JA Mobile Finance Park a memorable and powerful learning experience for students.
