Community Shopping Day: Bellingham Girls Rock Camp

Shop today and 2% off our combined sales will be donated to Bellingham Girls Rock Camp! You can also donate at the register any day of the month.

The mission of Bellingham Girls Rock Camp is to educate and inspire youth to be self-empowered collaborative leaders through music education, performance, media literacy, and social justice.

SEED funds will provide financial aid to low-income families who would not otherwise be able to attend Rock Camp, a week-long summer day camp for girls and queer youth ages 8 to 17. Over 50% of campers are supported by financial aid, and about 1/3 of campers receive full-tuition assistance. We hope to provide full financial aid for almost six Whatcom County youth to attend Rock Camp!
