Every month, approximately 2,600 families visit ECHO Food Shelf. That’s about
650 families each week, almost 120 per day. More than 200,000 pounds of food are distributed
to almost 10,000 people before any given month ends.

As demand for emergency food supplies grows, ECHO’s current facility is no longer able to meet
the needs of our community. We have purchased the property adjacent to our existing location
and created an expansion plan that will allow us to:

• Increase our storage capacity for both fresh and non-perishable food items; currently, we can
only store about a week’s worth of food.

• Accept more bulk food donations by creating space for semis to make safe deliveries.

• Enhance our services to both current and future clients as food insecurity in our community
continues to grow.

ECHO Food Shelf is launching a capital campaign to raise funds for this much-needed
expansion. Please consider supporting our growth and helping us continue to feed our
community.
