Note From Our Executive Director
 Today, we are celebrating! We just finished taking cap and gown photos with our latest GED graduate! This young lady now has her sights set on college. She originally came to our center in need of emergency food and clothes, but is leaving months later with a ticket to stability.
ECHO is getting a makeover!
Thank you Publix! On Wednesday, April 27th, ECHO will host over 100 Publix employees as volunteers! They plan paint a mural on the South side of the building as well as freshen up the entire exterior. We can't wait to see the reveal!
**ECHO will be closed on this day**
Success at Empty Bowls
Thank you to all who sponsored and attended our Empty Bowls event!. Over $27,000 was raised for the cause! Together we are stopping hunger in it's tracks!
Thank you to Braille Works for being our Spring Job Fair sponsor.
