“Here, people are accepted and made to feel like a normal person. Here, they’re important, because these volunteers come here for them.”
CAST (Coffee and Sandwiches Together) began in 1999 as an outreach mission of two local faith communities. It’s since evolved into a fully volunteer-run program that serves a simple meal of soup, sandwiches, fruits/snacks, and beverages to anyone in need. Annually, more than 11,000 meals are served in downtown Bellingham. Volunteers prepare and serve the meals.
CAST serves at the Arch of Healing and Reconciliation behind the downtown Bellingham Library four nights a week, rain or shine, throughout the year.
Come grab a meal:
Mondays, Wednesdays, Thursdays, Fridays from 6:00 pm - 7:00 pm at the Arch of Healing and Reconciliation.
Financial donations goes directly to purchasing food and drinks for guests.
