SUMMARY:Bellingham Repair Café
DESCRIPTION:Operation hours are the First Wednesday of each month from
  6 PM to 9 PM and the First Sunday of each month from 3 PM to 6 PM\n\n
 \nThe Bellingham Repair Café is held at The Foundry (bellinghamfoundr
 y.com). 1515 N. Forest Street, Bellingham.\n\nThe Bellingham Repair Ca
 fé is a twice - a - month social event to which you can bring your br
 oken items to have them repaired for free (unless certain parts are ne
 eded). Over 50% of consumer items can be given a second life with litt
 le effort preserving resources and expense and counteracting consumpti
 on, waste and \"planned obsolescence\". Don't have anything that needs
  fixing? Just stop by and watch and learn or socialize in a friendly a
 tmosphere with a complimentary cup of tea or coffee and a pastry.\nBri
 ng your children\nRecognizing the needs of (single) parents the Café 
 is child friendly. There is a separate room with toys.\nHow do we make
  money?\nWe don't! We do what we do out of the conviction that it is n
 ecessary. And we have lots of fun! But we do have to eat. So for occas
 ional salary payments and to cover our operating costs we rely on dona
 tions and on sponsors.\n \nFacts:\nIn the past three decades, one-thi
 rd of the planet’s resources, its ‘natural wealth,’ have been co
 nsumed. (millenniumassessment.org). Reusing and recycling are essentia
 l to secure our future.\nFor every one garbage can of waste you put ou
 t on the curb, 70 garbage cans of waste were made upstream to make 
 the junk in that one garbage can you put out on the curb (worldwatch.
 org). Every item we can keep out of the landfill therefore will save r
 esources far beyond what is contained in the broken item.\nOn average,
  every person in the US creates almost 5lb of waste every day.\n\n\nFo
