IAFF Local 106
PO Box 1024
Bellingham, WA 98227
Our brothers and sisters over at Whatcom County Fire District 1 have been hard at work, and several other agencies across the county have increased staffing today in response to the continued flooding impacts. As crews work around the clock, we’re asking the community to help keep everyone safe by remembering the following:
• Please obey all road-closure and detour signs — they’re in place to protect both you and the neighborhoods experiencing high water.
• Avoid driving through standing water. Depth can be difficult to judge, and even shallow water can disable your vehicle or push additional water toward already affected homes. ... See MoreSee Less

🍁 Local 106 Has Been Busy! 🍁
We've had many opportunities to support our community this year, and we couldn’t be prouder of the work our members have done.
🔥 Operation Warm – Central Elementary
On Wednesday, our Operation Warm event at Central Elementary in Ferndale was a huge success! We provided 304 brand-new winter coats to local students, ensuring they stay warm and ready for the colder months ahead.
⚾🏀 Supporting Local Youth Sports
Earlier this spring, Local 106 proudly supported several youth sports programs across Whatcom County, including:
Lynden Baseball – Co-ed, ~120 kids (K–2)
Bellingham Boys & Girls Club Baseball – 1 co-ed team, 13 kids
Lynden Super Sonics – Middle school girls basketball
Together, these programs received $2,500 in support from the union.
🧥 More Coat Support Coming Up
Looking ahead, we’ll be helping provide coats for Lighthouse Mission, the YWCA Women’s Shelter, and Family and Community Services through the local school districts to continue supporting families in need this winter.
Thank you to everyone who makes these efforts possible. ... See MoreSee Less

🔥 We need your help keeping Whatcom kids warm this winter! 🔥
Every year, Local 106 partners with Operation Warm to provide brand-new winter coats to kids in need across Whatcom County. Because Operation Warm works directly with manufacturers, we’re able to purchase high-quality coats at a low cost — stretching every donation further.
Just $25 provides a new winter coat for a child in need.
Last year, we provided 408 coats across Whatcom County schools. This year, our goal is 500 coats — but we can’t get there without your help! 💛
The smiles on kids’ faces as we fit them in their new coats are unforgettable — and it’s only possible thanks to your support.
👉 Please join us in supporting Operation Warm and making sure no child in Whatcom County faces winter without a coat.
