Join us for our End of Year Holiday Party at The Blue Room!
This is our last Social of 2025 and we want to celebrate it in style. Throw on your fancy attire and join us in celebrating a successful year of connection, networking, and professional development with our annual end of year holiday party!
To give you a little extra time to get sparkly, we'll kick the party off at 6pm. Come dressed to impress and celebrate with your fellow Whatcom YP members. Cocktail/business casual attire encouraged!
All active members of Whatcom YP will receive a drink ticket with their registration; your first drink is on us! We'll also be providing some light appetizers for you to enjoy.
& we're bringing back our Whatcom YP Community Recognition Awards, linked here. Please submit all nominees by 11:59PM on Monday, December 8th!
No need to bring any raffle prizes to this social, hold onto them until January!
Contact our Events team (Taylor Beal or Sam Beardslee) with any questions or if you're interested in sponsoring this social.
November and December WYPs socials will double as a fundraiser for the Bellingham Food Bank. Clean out your pantry and bring nonperishables, or bring cash to donate. You can also make a donation directly here.
Thank you for helping support our friends, neighbors, & members experiencing food insecurity.
Hot tip: Donating food you already have at home is great, but if you’re planning to buy items specifically for the drive, consider donating cash instead! The Bellingham Food Bank can stretch every dollar much further thanks to their bulk purchasing power.

Whatcom Young Professional Zero Tolerance Policy:
Whatcom Young Professional's Zero Tolerance Policy is part of our commitment to providing a safe and dignified organization for the community, regardless of gender, gender identity, race, ethnicity, sexual orientation, disability, religion, or any other aspect of identity. All Whatcom Young Professional members are responsible for conducting themselves professionally and inclusively, and disciplinary action will be taken when a Whatcom Young Professional’s behavior violates this expectation. The Policy covers harassment, bullying, and discrimination in Whatcom Young Professionals and provides a standard for addressing allegations of inappropriate behavior, ensuring fairness and equal treatment.
Any Whatcom Young Professional member found to have been involved in harassment, bullying, physical assault, or discriminatory behavior will be subject to immediate disciplinary action, up to and including membership termination. If anyone on the Whatcom Young Professional Advisory Council becomes aware or witnesses a Whatcom YP member engaged in inappropriate behavior, the member will be asked to leave the event or meeting, which may result in the termination of membership decided by the advisory council.
