Community

The Bellingham Bulldogs have partnered with three local charity groups that are working to better our community. Proceeds earned from Game Program, Merchandise and General Admission ticket sales at each of our six home games will benefit one of these organizations. In addition, the Bellingham Bulldogs have pledged to volunteer their time to assist each charity in completing its mission. Here is some information about each of the charities and what they hope to accomplish.

Habitat For Humanity In Whatcom County
Habitat For Humanity in Whatcom County works in partnership with God and community to provide simple, decent housing for people in need by building or renovating houses– creating affordable homes so families can live and grow into all that God intended. We've been working locally since 1987 to provide affordable housing. At the close of 2006 we had completed 21 new homes with a duplex almost finished. Six were completed in our first 12 years, and 14 more were built during the ensuing six years. We built three homes in 2005 and are planning to build four more in 2006, adding to the number of homes we build every two years until we reach our goal of building 8-10 homes yearly. We are but one of 2,100 affiliates around the world in 87 countries, an outgrowth of a grassroots movement begun in 1976. Following the vision, we strive to make decent shelter a matter of conscience and action, by making squalorous, unhealthy, substandard housing politically, socially and religiously unacceptable.
