Ferndale Community Services

Our community has been incredibly generous with donations — so generous that we need a few extra hands (at least!) to help us sort through it all.

This month we're sorting and prepping items for the FernDale of a Sale — a big community yard sale happening in Ferndale. FCS will be there selling donated goods, with all proceeds going directly back into our programs and services. It's a good way to see exactly how your time connects to something tangible in the community.

If you can spare a Saturday morning, we'd love to have you.

Saturday, June 20th — 10 AM to 1 PM
2116 Main St, Ferndale

June is here, and we're celebrating.

Happy Pride Month to our community. At FCS, we believe everyone deserves to be seen, supported, and valued. That doesn't change depending on who you are or who you love.

Come see us! FREE EVENT!!! And the band ROCKS!!

The Ferndale Pavilion is going to be packed tomorrow! Rock the Nest Fest kicks off at 4:30pm with food trucks, activities for the kids, a glow-in-the-dark foam party, and a free concert running into the evening.

While you're there, take a walk through the nonprofit tables. It's a good chance to meet some of the people doing the work that makes Ferndale run and learn about what's happening in your own backyard.

Grab your people and come out. Ferndale Pavilion, Saturday, May 30th, 4:30pm to 10pm.

Our sorting tables and storage areas have officially reached maximum capacity. You all have been incredibly generous, but right now, we have a mountain of bags waiting to be processed and zero physical space left to store any more unsorted clothing.

Starting June 1st, we are hitting the pause button on all clothing donations for the month so our team can catch up and sort through what we already have.

To be clear: we are still accepting household items and hygiene supplies. If you have bags of clothes ready to drop off, we suggest taking them to our friends at Goodwill for the month of June.

If you're interested in helping us break through this bottleneck and tackle the mountain of clothes we already have, we can always use more hands to help us sort through it all. Just head over to our website and fill out a volunteer application. Thank you for always showing up for your neighbors!

Today we honor everyone who served and sacrificed so that we could live freely.

At FCS, we also know that freedom looks different depending on where you're standing. A safe place to sleep. Food on the table. A community that sees you.

That's what we work toward every day.

Wishing you a meaningful Memorial Day from all of us at Ferndale Community Services.

In observance of Memorial Day, our offices will be closed Monday, May 26th. We'll be back Tuesday, May 27th at 9am.

Wishing everyone a safe and restful long weekend.
