We imagine a world where all children are healthy, safe, and prepared to build their own futures.EBC works to achieve this vision through our mission of helping kids reach their full potential tomorrow by meeting basic needs today. We provide tangible assistance at no cost to struggling families, reducing the distress felt by children, and their parents. Through partnerships with 51 human service organizations, schools and medical facilities, more than 12,000 children each year are helped. Kids have the stress of living in poverty reduced, their healthy development promoted, and they are better prepared for success in school. Partner agencies can concentrate their resources and expertise on supporting families, increasing their opportunities for success. At EBC, members of the community connect with each other while caring for their neighbors. They donate goods, volunteer, or give financial support to make sure kids are getting what they need, when they need it. Volunteers contribute 3,000 hours each month. Founded in 1990, EBC annually distributes nearly 100,000 items for kids in King, south Snohomish, Kitsap, and west Pierce Counties.What EBC does seems simple, but the goods families receive relieve stress, reduce financial burdens, and provide the support caregivers need to ensure the safety and well-being of their children. EBC helps reduce the effects of community, income, or societal inequities by providing basic necessities for children.
