A big thank you to Healthy Eyes Vision Center, Dr. Absy, and Zane for spending time with our 4-year-old ECC students today! 👓❤️

Their team provided vision screenings to help ensure our little learners have the tools they need to grow, learn, and thrive. Early detection can make a world of difference, and we are so grateful for partners who invest in the health and success of our children.

Thank you for caring for our kids and helping us support healthy futures, one child at a time!

Our first flame has been added to the fires!
Even our littlest members can spark a change and make a difference 🔥

06/12/2026

🔥 Every flame tells a story.

A story of a child making a new friend.
A story of confidence gained.
A story of adventure, laughter, and belonging.

We’re hoping to light every campfire on our Campfires Across the Galaxy wall by July 22. Purchase a paper flame in honor of a camper, your family, a loved one, or simply because you believe every child deserves a place to shine.

There is no set donation amount. Every flame makes a difference.

Stop by the Welcome Desk or Chanta’s office today to start lighting a fire for our kiddos! 🔥
