Vamos Outdoors Gets Green Grant

Puget Sound Energy’s $7.2 million in grants is turning heads—and turning dirt into green: over 20 groups across Western Washington are getting funding to tackle transportation and emissions. In Bellingham, Vamos Outdoors Project is using their share plus electric vehicles to bring free outdoor fun, food, gear, and rides to underserved youth. With nearly half of Bellingham’s low-income residents lacking reliable transit access, Vamos is bridging gaps while cutting pollution—because nature access and environmental progress don’t have to compete. Five Bellingham orgs got 2025 grants, already touching 1,500 lives this year. Want in? Applications for 2026 grants close July 1.
