Without the financial support of the following, Whatcom Volunteer Center would not be able to accomplish its mission. We are honored to have the support of this terrific community: individuals, businesses, and government. Thank You!

Your donation in support of Whatcom Volunteer Center ensures that volunteers can continue to play their huge role in the health and well-being of our community.

Your donation will help ensure that Whatcom Volunteer Center and the Volunteer Chore Program can continue our important work. The Volunteer Center will be able to link volunteers to meaningful service meeting community needs, and the Volunteer Chore Program will continue to assist low income elders and adults with disabilities with the chores of everyday life, allowing them to continue to live independently.

Every dollar you donate to the Whatcom Volunteer Center and the Volunteer Chore Program is a great investment in our community’s ability to sustain a diverse and vital community.

Support the Volunteer Chore Program today!
