- and more!

Using our Donation Bins
You can drop off clothing donations right at the Dan Godwin Community Center or four other convenient locations! Look for the blue metal bins in Bellingham, Lynden, and Sumas where you can make a clothing donation at any time without having to schedule a pick-up.
Remember, if the bin doesn't have the letters Arc, it doesn't help the Arc of Whatcom County!
You can also drop your donations off at Value Village (150 East Bellis Fair Parkway, Bellingham); be sure to mention The Arc when you make your donation.
