ECFC is committed to responsible stewardship of every dollar entrusted to us. Each year, we carefully review local organizations to ensure our support reaches programs that make a real and measurable impact. After funds are distributed, we follow up with recipients to confirm that resources were used as promised. This commitment to transparency ensures your generosity directly strengthens families and children right here in Collier County.
Our commitment extends to the people within our own Eagle Creek community. ECFC maintains a reserve fund to assist Eagle Creek Golf & Country Club employees facing sudden or serious hardship. This safety net provides immediate support during life-changing emergencies, reinforcing our belief that neighbors care for neighbors.
ECFC proudly supports programs that enrich the lives of children, families, and vulnerable individuals throughout Collier County. Past recipients include Parkside Elementary School, Lely High School, Lely Elementary School, Manatee Elementary School, Manatee Middle School, Inside Out Social Skills Training, Panira Healthcare Clinic, Sunlight Home, Youth Haven, and Our Daily Bread Food Pantry.
These partnerships reflect our ongoing commitment to building stronger, healthier, and more resilient communities.
At local schools, ECFC funding provides essentials such as back-to-school supplies, hygiene items, teacher resources, and assistance for families in crisis. We help equip band programs with uniforms and instruments, strengthen student leadership initiatives, and support rewards programs that encourage positive behavior, academic engagement, and wellness.
Beyond education, ECFC champions initiatives that address critical social needs. We support programs that teach social-emotional skills to children, provide safe housing and life-skills training for homeless pregnant women, offer therapeutic support to at-risk foster youth, and deliver food and supplies to vulnerable households.
These efforts reflect ECFC’s mission to uplift, empower, and create meaningful change for the people of Collier County.
