Outreach to Communities

Bellingham Threshold Singers strive to touch the spirits of many in our community. Although our primary focus is to bring comfort to individuals and families at the bedside, we honor requests to sing at memorial services, celebrations of life ceremonies and community events that seek to benefit those who are in the midst of grieving and healing.
