Bend's Community Center (BCC) is a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization which was founded in 1999. BCC's main offices are located at the site of the former Bend Senior Center and we also operate programs out of two other service buildings (BCC Thriftstore and BCC Warehouse).
BCC fills a unique niche in the community in that it is both an events facility and a social service provider.Events Facility - BCC serves as a partner with many local nonprofits, clubs, agencies and organizations by providing a flexible and affordable location for trainings, workshops, conferences, classes and special events. We are also available to the public for weddings, receptions and private parties!
Social Service Provider - BCC offers several programs that provide basic goods and services to at-risk low-income residents. These include running the largest food kitchen in Central Oregon, employment-related training to youth and adults, a used clothes baling operation and a diaper bank for infants and seniors.
