Here is what the parents of kids who received our scholarships to Common Threads summer camp this summer are saying –<\/div>\n
\n

\u201cWe loved this camp! I\u2019ve never seen our kids so happy after camp. They learned so much and camp home eating much healthier. I hope to send them to more camps with you!<\/p>\n

“This was our first camp with you. We’ve tried other camps, and never had the same excitement that we did with this camp. The kids were excited for each day!\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Assistance League of Bellingham\u2019s philanthropic program\u00a0Eating Healthy<\/strong>\u00a0provides volunteer support and funds for approximately 25 elementary school gardens, where children learn to grow, harvest, cook and eat fresh vegetables.<\/p>\n

We are partnering with a local nonprofit\u00a0Common Threads Farm<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0which is dedicated to \u201cgrowing good eaters\u201d by exposing young children to the joy of eating fresh produce.<\/p>\n
