FORM 990, PART III PAGE 2, PART III, LINE 4A - CONTINUED WE RECOGNIZE CLIENTS' SITUATIONS ARE OFTEN COMPLEX AND MAY NOT STAY RESOLVED, WHICH IS WHY CLIENT NAVIGATORS KEEP COMMUNICATIONS OPEN. ONGOING CIRCUMSTANCES OFTEN TEST CLIENTS' RESILIENCY, AND THE ECCO STAFF AND VOLUNTEERS ENSURE CLIENTS DO NOT LOSE HOPE IN THEIR TIME OF NEED. OUR MISSION STATEMENT READS: "WE PROVIDE ASSISTANCE, GUIDANCE, AND RESOURCES TO HELP OUR NEIGHBORS NAVIGATE THROUGH LIFE'S CHALLENGES." ECCO'S VISION STATEMENT IS, "A COMMUNITY WHERE ALL PEOPLE CAN DISCOVER A PATH TO OPPORTUNITY." THE MISSION AND VISION STATEMENTS ALIGN AND MATERIALIZE THROUGH COMPASSIONATE STAFF AND VOLUNTEERS WHO OFFER ASSISTANCE IN THE FORM OF ESSENTIAL SERVICES TO LOCAL NEIGHBORS FACING FINANCIAL HARDSHIP. SERVICES INCLUDE FOOD, FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE, DENTAL AND MEDICAL CARE, PRESCRIPTION ASSISTANCE, ACCESS TO SNAP AND MEDICAID ENROLLMENT, SEASONAL INITIATIVES, EMERGENCY RESPONSE, AND A CLOTHING CLOSET. WE OFFER GUIDANCE THROUGH THE DIRECTION AND SYSTEM OF SUPPORT PROVIDED BY STAFF AND VOLUNTEERS AS WE WALK WITH CLIENTS ALONG THEIR PATH TO OPPORTUNITY. SERVICES INCLUDE BECOMING AN ECCO CLIENT AND RECEIVING CLIENT NAVIGATION SUPPORT, ACCESS TO WORKSHOPS AND PROGRAMS, AND THE ASSET DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM (ADP) - A SAVINGS MATCH PROGRAM TO HELP LOW WEALTH FAMILIES DEVELOP ASSETS. ADDITIONALLY, ECCO CONNECTS CLIENTS TO A NETWORK OF COMMUNITY PARTNERS WHO MAXIMIZE SUPPORT ON THEIR JOURNEY TOWARDS ACHIEVING PERSONAL FINANCIAL GOALS. THESE RESOURCES INCLUDE EDUCATION AND CAREER READINESS, FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE REFERRALS AND BENEFITS, SPECIALTY HEALTHCARE AND WELLNESS, AND HOME REPAIR. WHEN A PERSON EXPERIENCING CRISIS BECOMES AN ECCO CLIENT, THEY RECEIVE THE SKILLS, KNOWLEDGE, EAR, AND ACTION FROM A TEAM OF STAFF AND VOLUNTEERS WHO PULL TOGETHER RESOURCES ON THEIR BEHALF AND PROVIDE THE REASSURANCE THE CLIENT NEEDS TO MOVE FORWARD. ECCO IS UNIQUELY POSITIONED IN THE AREA AS ONE OF ONLY A FEW AGENCIES IN THE GREATER CHARLESTON REGION WHICH PROVIDES COMPREHENSIVE WRAP-AROUND SUPPORT SERVICES AND PROGRAMS TO HOUSEHOLDS EXPERIENCING FINANCIAL DISTRESS. ALL OF ECCO'S ESSENTIAL SERVICES ARE AVAILABLE TO THOSE WHO LIVE OR WORK EAST OF THE COOPER RIVER AND MEET ECCO'S INCOME ELIGIBILITY GUIDELINES THAT ARE BASED ON 250% OF THE FEDERAL POVERTY GUIDELINES. ECCO'S DEMOGRAPHICS SHOW THAT 37% OF ECCO CLIENTS MAKE NO MORE THAN THE FEDERAL POVERTY LEVEL AND 21% HAVE ZERO INCOME. THE AVERAGE ANNUAL INCOME OF ECCO'S CLIENTS IN FYE24 WAS 17,831. IN FYE24, 1,535 FAMILIES COMPRISED OF 2,890 INDIVIDUALS RELIED ON ECCO TO HELP THEM OVERCOME HUNGER, EVICTION, UTILITY DISCONNECTION, UNMET HEALTH AND DENTAL NEEDS, THE DIFFICULT CHOICE BETWEEN BUYING FOOD OR LIFE-SAVING PRESCRIPTIONS, AND/OR A SENSE OF DESPAIR THAT CAN COME WHEN WEATHERING LIFE'S EMERGENCIES. THESE NUMBERS REPRESENT A 12% DECREASE IN THE TOTAL NUMBER OF HOUSEHOLDS SERVED FROM THE PRIOR FISCAL YEAR AND 343 LESS FAMILY MEMBERS. WHILE THE OVERALL CLIENT NUMBERS DECREASED, THE NUMBER OF SERVICES ACCESSED BY EACH OF OUR CLIENTS INCREASED, ALONG WITH THE RETAIL VALUE OF THESE SERVICES. THIS WAS PARTICULARLY TRUE OF ECCO'S FOOD PANTRY THAT SAW A 16% INCREASE IN THE NUMBER OF FOOD ORDERS PLACED IN FYE24. CLIENTS ARE PRIMARILY WOMEN (69%), BLACK (62%), AND OVER THE AGE OF 55 (52%). EIGHTY-NINE PERCENT ARE SINGLE (INCLUDES DIVORCED, WIDOWED, SEPARATED AND NEVER MARRIED). THERE ARE CURRENTLY 385 ECCO-ASSISTED HOUSEHOLDS WITH AT LEAST 1 CHILD. OF THOSE, 19% ARE GRANDPARENTS CARING FOR THEIR GRANDCHILDREN AND 56% ARE SINGLE MOTHERS. ECCO SERVICES ARE FOR ADULTS BUT BECAUSE THERE ARE 788 CHILDREN UNDER THE AGE OF 18 LIVING IN THE HOUSEHOLDS ECCO SERVES, WE KNOW THAT OUR WORK IMPACTS MULTIPLE GENERATIONS. TWELVE PERCENT OF CLIENTS DID NOT COMPLETE HIGH SCHOOL, 47% HAVE A HIGH SCHOOL DIPLOMA OR CREDENTIAL, 17% HAVE SOME COLLEGE, AND 24% HAVE COMPLETED A POST-SECONDARY DEGREE OR CERTIFICATION. TWENTY-SIX PERCENT OF CLIENTS MUST BORROW A VEHICLE, PAY FOR RIDES, OR USE PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION BECAUSE THEY DO NOT HAVE A VEHICLE.
