Submitted by Whatcom Transportation Authority
During the month of December, the Amalgamated Transit Union (ATU) and Whatcom Transportation Authority (WTA) collected warm clothing and blankets, donated by employees and members of the public. In all, the “Warm Hearts Warm Hands” clothing drive collected one hundred 40-pound bags full of warm clothes and blankets. The donations were divided evenly and distributed to three local organizations, recommended by Whatcom County’s Opportunity Council: Fountain Church, Hope House and the South Samish Resource Center.
