Overflow Shelter New Volunteer Training

  • Lighthouse Mission 1013 West Holly Street Bellingham, WA, 98225 United States (map)

Our economy, job market, cost of living, housing market, childcare shortage, and mental health crisis...all of these big issues are forcing more and more people and families onto the streets of our community.  Don't stand by in despair or frustration...be part of the solution!  Again this winter, CTK will be hosting a winter shelter for up to 40 men who need a warm place to sleep between Dec 1 - Feb 28.  Year after year, volunteers tell us how thankful they are to have participated, to have their perspective shaped by experience, and to be part of making a life-and-death difference for some of the most vulnerable in Whatcom County.  We make sure you are well-equipped and comfortable serving at the shelter by asking that you:

  1. Complete an interest form that helps us get to know you and your skills and experience.

  2. Attend a team orientation on Sunday, November 20th from 6:30 to 8:30 pm at the shelter OR online on Wednesday, November 16th from 6:30 to 8:30 pm.
