📖✨ The Ellis Club Cookbook Fundraiser ✨📖

In celebration of Ellisville’s 200th anniversary, The Ellis Club is bringing our community together in a special way—by creating a one-of-a-kind cookbook filled with recipes from the people who make this place feel like home. ❤️

We’re inviting residents, families, and friends of Ellisville and Jones County to submit their favorite recipes—whether it’s a long-standing family tradition or a new favorite dish. This cookbook will be something for generations to cherish, sharing the flavors and stories that connect us all.

Submitting your recipe is easy! Just scan the QR code on this post and send it in. 📝

By participating in this fundraiser, you’re helping The Ellis Club continue what we’re passionate about—volunteering, serving our community, and giving back where it’s needed most.

Let’s celebrate 200 years of Ellisville by coming together, one recipe at a time. 🍽️

We are proud to present the 2025-2026 Ellis Elites! At our meeting Monday night, we honored them with a pinning ceremony and our graduating seniors received their Ellis cords for commencements. We are so incredibly proud of each one of them and thrilled they seek to participate in having a hand in their community’s well being.
During various events and activities throughout the year, these high school students make a difference in the lives around them while gaining community service hours. We look forward to seeing the wonderful things they accomplish this year as well as watching our graduates flourish in their next chapter with a heart of service in the forefront. Thank you to the parents and families that share your precious time of these young women with the Ellis Club. We cherish each and every one and can’t wait to make a difference with them!

It was an amazing thing to see the community come together for such a wonderful organization and cause. Thank you again to ALL the businesses in and around Ellisville and Jones County that had a hand in making this donation be bigger and even more surprising than we had originally hoped and prayed for. The Ellis Club was honored to present this donation on behalf of those individuals and businesses that gave from the heart and to bring awareness/light to the issue of Child Abuse and Neglect this month.
💙🩵💙🩵

April is Child Abuse Prevention Month, and we have been honored to see our community come together in such a meaningful way.

The Ellis Club led a special fundraiser by placing pinwheels at local businesses who chose to participate, helping raise both awareness and support for Cherished Hearts. Because of their efforts, along with the generosity of those businesses and individuals, pinwheels have been displayed throughout our community as a powerful reminder of the children we serve.

Today, The Ellis Club presented Cherished Hearts with a $2,500 donation from this initiative, and we are incredibly grateful.

This effort goes far beyond fundraising. It reflects a community that is willing to stand together, raise awareness, and support children and families when it matters most.

To The Ellis Club, and to every business and individual who participated, thank you. Your support strengthens the work we do each day and helps ensure that children in Jones County have a safe place, a voice, and a path toward healing. 💙
