Here at the EWRRC, we have a donation drop off box! :)

Help us get kids the everyday items they need at home, not just at school, so they're ready to tackle the upcoming school year! We're collecting toothbrushes and toothpaste, laundry detergent, paper towels, and more—because kids have enough to think about in their new classes without worrying about their clothes being dirty.

Our Back2Basics campaign collects household essentials, hygiene items, and school supplies so students have everything they need to conquer the year. Donate at one of the drive locations listed at oppco.org/back2basics.

An important announcement about the DentALL program that has been serving the East Whatcom community over the last year and a half:

Unfortunately, at this time we do not have the funding to support this beloved program. We have been eagerly seeking funding opportunities and will continue to do so. For the time being, this program has gone into hiatus.

We know how many people are still seeking accessible dental care. At this time, we will happily take your name and contact information so we can let you know as soon as the program is ready to get back up and running. As well as seek any other program we can refer you to in the mean time.

Thank you for all you've done in East Whatcom, and to all of our community members who have utilized it!
