Action pact 6th Annual Duck Race - Don’t miss your chance to be a part of the action!

We are incredibly grateful to the Effingham County High School Sources of Strength Club for their generous hygiene drive in support of our HELP Pantry. Because of their compassion and effort, we are able to continue providing essential items to individuals and families in our community who need them most. 💙

A heartfelt thank you to every student who donated—your kindness truly makes a difference. This is what community looks like: showing up, giving back, and supporting one another in meaningful ways.

We also want to give a special thank you to club advisor Haley Reynolds for leading and encouraging these efforts. Your guidance is helping shape a stronger, more connected community.

Below is more about the Sources of Strength Club and the values they bring to both their school and our community:

"At ECHS, our Sources of Strength club is dedicated to building a culture of hope, connection, and resilience among our students, staff, and community. Sources of Strength is a strength-based, upstream mental health and su***de prevention program that focuses on empowering individuals to build protective factors and support one another through life’s challenges. By emphasizing hope, help, and strength, our club works to create a positive environment where everyone feels supported and connected.

Throughout the year, our students lead and participate in a variety of impactful initiatives—from su***de prevention awareness tabling and school-wide campaigns like ice bucket challenges, to organizing candy grams for Valentine’s Day and supporting staff through teacher appreciation efforts like babysitting during conferences. We also give back through food drives, assist annually with Teen Maze to help students navigate real-life challenges, and most recently, led our own hygiene drive to support a local pantry.

These efforts reflect our commitment to turning hope into action and making a positive difference both inside and outside our school. We are proud of our students for continuing to build a supportive, connected community."

Women’s History Month Spotlight

✨ A Life of Service. A Legacy of Impact.

Some people work a job. Others answer a calling.

For 44 years, Ophelia K. Gaines answered a calling to serve others through the Community Action movement — changing countless lives across Southeast Georgia.

This Women’s History Month, action pact proudly celebrates our retired Executive Director. Inducted into the Inaugural National Community Action Hall of Fame during the National Community Action Foundation’s 2024 Legislative Conference in Washington, D.C. Out of leaders from across the nation, only 15 individuals were selected for this historic honor — and Mrs. Gaines was one of them.

Her journey began in 1973, when the Albany State graduate joined Altamaha Area Community Action. Within just three months, she was promoted into a Directorship — the beginning of a remarkable career in service.

But what followed was more than a career. It was 44 years of purpose-driven leadership. Mrs. Gaines built strong partnerships with community leaders and government officials to strengthen the fight against poverty.

Those partnerships helped bring meaningful change across Southeast Georgia, including:

• Expanded meal delivery programs for seniors
• State-of-the-art senior centers and Head Start facilities
• Financial empowerment programs for families
• Stronger community partnerships to uplift those in need

Mrs. Gaines also worked intentionally to ensure leadership reflected the communities being served. Despite the challenges, her passion never faded.

Why?

Because for her, Community Action was never just a job. It was life’s work.

In her words:

"I always knew I wanted to help people. That was a calling deep down inside me. We are put on earth to help each other. We have a mission."

Today, her legacy continues to inspire the work we do every day at action pact.

💙 Thank you, Mrs. Gaines, for your decades of leadership, faith, and unwavering commitment to helping others.
