Celebrate the collective power of community by joining the City of Bellingham and the Nooksack Salmon Enhancement Association (NSEA) as well as other community partners for our annual Martin Luther King, Jr., Day of Service Community Work Party on Saturday, January 17th from 11:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. at Willow Spring in Squalicum Creek Park. 

Together, we'll plant native trees and shrubs to restore fish and wildlife habitat and improve water quality to benefit salmon and other native species.

Through this work, we'll be advancing the environmental justice movement, which was inspired by Dr. King through his concern for the urban environment. Environmental justice embodies the principle that all people have the right to clean air, water, and soil, as well as the right to live in safe and healthy communities.

This event is partnering with Birchwood Food Desert Fighters (BFDF) to collect unopened donations for their efforts in promoting equitable food access to the community. BFDF supports our community through weekly events, food share boxes, food delivery, farming, advocacy, and more. Volunteers are encouraged to bring donations of shelf-stable proteins (e.g., canned fish/meats, shelf-stable tofu, shelf-stable milks, nuts, canned beans, etc.) to this work party to support BFDF's work.

You need: Weather-appropriate clothing, long pants, closed-toe shoes, snacks, and a full water bottle.

We provide: Tools, gloves, instruction, and light refreshments, including free Tony’s coffee and free pizza, all of which were generously donated for this event. We're also giving away free trees while supplies last!

Volunteers should be aware that the work party site includes typical park uneven terrain. Volunteers assume all liability for conducting volunteer work within the project area.

Additional information will be emailed to registered participants the evening before the work party. Register early, space is limited. If you sign up, please show up! All ages, abilities, and experience levels are welcome.

This event is Parkscriptions Certified!

Important Registration Steps:

After you have completed the required waiver (adult or youth), please be sure to then click "Sign Up" to complete your registration for the event! Completing the waiver does not automatically sign you up.

If you are bringing any additional volunteers or family members, please sign up as a team or have them join the site, sign the waiver, and then sign up individually. Here are some guides:

If you are bringing any youth under age 18 and have issues with the waiver or don’t want to create a separate account for them, you can also sign a paper youth waiver at check-in on the day of the work party (or you can print one out and bring it with you).

Role Overview 

Rainier Athletes' (RA) mission is to affirm our youth’s sense of purpose and belonging by intentionally connecting their core community of teachers, coaches, families, and mentors. Once selected, each student is paired with a dedicated one-on-one mentor in elementary and middle school and a Squad Leader in high school. Each student is also sponsored to participate in sports/extra-curricular activities year-round throughout their duration with Rainer Athletes. Students begin their RA journey in 4th grade and continue through high school graduation and beyond.  

To sustain our impact with the growing number of Rainier Athletes high school students and families, we are seeking enthusiastic, dedicated individuals to serve as Squad Leaders for small groups of high school students. Squads consist of four or five students of similar ages. Squad Leaders are tasked with building relationships with students in their squad(s) as well as their students’ families, teachers, and others in the community. 

Responsibilities include coordinating logistics and prepping for weekly hour-long Squad Meet-Ups. These Squad Meet-Ups may include topical discussions, study sessions, or other activities to strengthen relationships and build towards each student’s next step plan after high school. Collaboration is a key element to the program’s success; Squad Leaders will have hour-long weekly formal opportunities to connect with other Squad Leaders and RA’s High School Program Manager to share highlights, challenges, and best practices.

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.

At U-District Mentoring, we believe that everyone has something to offer as a mentor. It doesn’t take much to greatly impact a child's life. By showing up consistently, for four hours each month, you can help to decrease depression symptoms, increase self confidence, and encourage higher educational goals for your mentee. Forming these relationships and expanding a child’s horizons can be one of the most rewarding experiences.

Unlike other mentoring programs, we don’t have a waitlist of children. Instead, we intentionally match the mentor and the child based on interests and experiences. Hoping to be matched with a child that likes to paint or play sports? With the help of school counselors, we work to find that perfect match. 

The commitment level is easy, even for the busiest of people. You can create the schedule and get to plan each outing!

When housing is disrupted in communities after a disaster it can be difficult for some people to find new long-term housing. The Shelter Resident Transition Service Associates help shelter residents create personalized plans to overcome roadblocks and transition to sustainable housing solutions. They play a critical role in reducing disaster-caused displacement and aiding in long-term recovery for individuals.

Do you have the flexibility to deploy for two weeks to support communities impacted by disaster? The Red Cross is looking to train willing individuals 18 and older who want to alleviate human suffering by shortening the time of disaster-caused displacement. All training and travel expenses are fully covered by the Red Cross.

We believe in the dignity and value of every individual, seeing beyond the circumstances to the human being within, our approach to harm reduction is rooted in compassion and practical support especially in critical areas like Naloxone Access and Needle Exchange. Understanding the complexities of substance use we strive to provide life-preserving resources and services that respect the autonomy and choices of those we serve. Our Volunteers will play a vital role in the preparation, packaging, and distribution of outreach items and care packages to help our community. The work may also require lifting between 30 to 50 pounds of donated items, so volunteers should be physically capable of handling these weights. Additionally, to ensure safety, volunteers are required to wear closed-toe shoes while performing their duties. Can only accommodate groups of up to 5 people. https://signup.com/go/eqjbECA
