I’m afraid I don’t have a contribution at the moment, but I do have a nagging question that perhaps you could help answer. It’s a tough year and I’m looking for ways to give back locally this holiday season. Any ideas on where to go, or what to reference for ideas, organizations, etc. in Bellingham?
Thanks!
