Everyone is doing a terrific job
I've been volunteering here for approximately 5 months and the assistance they provide to families is unbelievable. The entire staff is amazing and go out of their way to make everyone feel welcomed. It truly makes me feel as if I'm making a difference in our community.
I’m raising my grandkids and we don’t get food stamps and my husband is the only income we have, so I go to ECM for food to help us out.
