Help Local Teens and Families through ECCO High School with holiday groceries!
ECCO (or Early College and Career Options) High School is Eugene 4J’s alternative high school option for students for whom traditional comprehensive schools were not the right fit. Students opt to enroll at ECCO for a variety of reasons. And like any of us, from time to time could use some extra help.
For the 3rd year in a row we will be partnering with staff at ECCO to provide both Thanksgiving Meal Boxes AND Winter Break Grocery Boxes for students and families in need. This year CitySalt, Open Table Church, and other partner ministries are working together to meet this need!
Thanksgiving meals boxes are supplied through the OneHope Church Network.
Groceries for the Winter Break Grocery Boxes are personalized for each individual family based on their specific needs and preferences. This personalization is done through ECCO HS staff.
Our goal is to raise $5,000 to supply 35 Thanksgiving Meal Boxes and 55 Winter Break Grocery Boxes. CitySalt’s Church Council has agreed to using up to $2,000 from our designated outreach fund to help us reach this goal.
