Are you or someone you know looking for a place to volunteer in our community?
ESCCA -Evanston School Children’s Clothing Association is a wonderful, all volunteer, community organization with the simple mission: “No child should miss a day of school for need of warm, sturdy clothing.”
More than 600 children in District 65 receive ESCCA’s services. We need volunteers to sort clothing and to help K-8 school children select clothing. We are also looking for a few volunteers to join our board. If you are interested, you may send your contact/email information to: info@escca.org
ESCCA is located within the Joseph E. Hill Education Center at 1500 McDaniel. Come check us out on any Wednesday morning, 9-11:00am.
Evanston School Children’s Clothing Association (ESCCA) provides school clothing for all Evanston/Skokie District 65 K-8th grade school children in need. Each year we provide a full wardrobe of clothing and shoes to 500-600 children. Our clothing assistance services are performed efficiently and discreetly and always keep the dignity of the families in mind.
ESCCA is an all-volunteer organization. We rely on many District 65 parents and other volunteers who donate their time to ESCCA. We also depend on our community for financial support, and receive monetary donations from District 65 PTAs and parents, community members, foundations and other organizations. District 65 also generously provides us with support in the form of in-kind donations of space and services.
We greatly appreciate donations of clean, gently used children’s clothing and coats, appropriate for grades K-8.
