We Want to See You at Our New Office!
While ECHOS no longer addresses food insecurity with drive-through distributions, we still need our volunteers!
Join us for client-facing volunteer opportunities at our new office:
Volunteer duties can include:
- Helping clients with intake forms; reading and helping clients fill out forms
- Reading to clients’ children and helping them choose books to take home
- Coloring or drawing with kids in client waiting area
- Helping clients make a Benefits Application appointment
- Getting client contact information to place them on waiting lists
- Assisting with client clothing requests and pickups from our partner Clothed By Faith
- Showing clients how to use our computer lab to scan/print documents or maybe even create a resume. (This is new!)
If you are a student or you cannot come to ECHOS during our business hours, here are other ways to impact our clients’ lives:
- Host your own diaper or children’s book drive and donate them to ECHOS
- Donate select children’s items or housewares to a specific client family
If you’d like, bring a new or gently-used children’s book to donate to our client waiting room library.
