Giving Back to the Community
Every $1 donated is leveraged to provide $10 of food resources.
EHP's programs depend upon the generosity of individuals, congregations, businesses, schools and service groups. We receive no government funding. Here are some ways in which you can support those who are less fortunate.
We are able to do this through volume discounts, food banks and discount suppliers. For every $1 donated 9% goes toward administrative costs and 91% toward programs. EHP is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization and 100% of your donation is tax deductible. Our federal tax ID number is 94-2476942.
In-kind Contributions
EHP is happy to accept fresh food, clothing, working appliances (10 years or newer), furniture, household items and automobiles. We ask that these items are all undamaged and in good usable condition as they are given directly to disadvantaged families for use in their home. We provide our programs with the idea that we treat our clients as we would treat ourselves.
Drop your donations by, or contact us to arrange for a large pick-up. You can request a donation pick-up here.
Vehicle Donations
Donate your vehicle to EHP and not only receive a tax deduction but also help families in need. All donated vehicles, worth $500 or more, will be auctioned off for the benefit of EHP programs and clients. 85 cents of each $1 of the auction amount will directly benefit programs.
