A case has come to our attention—one that doesn’t involve hidden footprints or whispered alibis, but something far more urgent: families in crisis here in Unincorporated Hillsborough County. At ECHO, our mission is to follow the evidence, connect the dots, and work together until stability is fully restored for our neighbors facing hardship.

Saturday, May 8

Join ECHO for our largest food drive of the year in partnership with the United States Postal Service. Community-donated food is collected and delivered to ECHO to help keep our food pantry stocked for families in need. Last year, over 80,000 lbs of food were donated, and we hope to exceed that this year. Volunteers play a key role in transporting, sorting, and storing food at ECHO’s Resource Centers to support neighbors throughout Eastern Hillsborough County.
