COMMUNITY OUTREACH

Caring and respecting our local community and the world at large is key to a peaceful, loving existence. USC believes we are at our finest when we rise by lifting others. That is why we make community outreach the back bone of our center.

Meetings have been put on hold until further notice

Grace Bag Distribution – – Grace Bags are distributed by Unity of Bellingham to those experiencing homelessness and materials for the bags are collected all year long. These bags contain essential hygiene items, healthy snacks and agency support contact information. We are in need of the following (especially toothbrushes and small toothpastes): Gallon size zip lock bags, toothbrushes, toothpaste, floss, small hotel size bottles of lotion, shampoo, soap, combs, hand sanitizer, small bottles of water, granola bars or non-perishable healthy snacks (individual packets of nut butters, meat sticks, fruit leather, boxes of raisins, breakfast cookies, breakfast bars, etc.). Think small since these items will be hand carried inside pockets or backpacks. Thank you for your generosity!
