EAC Network’s best-interest child advocacy took another step forward recently when Suffolk Family Court Judge Chris Ann Kelley administered the oath of service to new Court Appointed Special Advocate (CASA) volunteers who successfully completed a rigorous 30-hour training program. This more than doubles the Suffolk program size!
Once again, MAC Cosmetics volunteers made a difference for EAC Network’s Nutrition Education & Food Services pantry. Over the past 15 years, this small army of enthusiastic MAC volunteers has worked their magic by donating thousands of hours for our food pantry and making a difference for People Living with HIV/ADS.
2019 marks the 33rd year that In-Home Respite Services is supporting family caregivers in Nassau County! The program’s longevity and success are all due to the commitment, dedication, and care of our volunteer respite companions.
On a day to day basis, what are we doing for others? Do we take the time to volunteer? Do we donate time, goods, or funds as much as we should? It’s not that we don’t want to—life is just so busy that we forget, or think we don’t have the time.
Every year we recognize World AIDS day on December 1. It’s a day to spread awareness of HIV/AIDS, and to recognize those who have passed away. Volunteers from M.A.C. Cosmetics came to EAC Network to help at Nutrition Education & Food Services, which improves the lives of individuals living with HIV/AIDS.
For many years, Toys for Tots in our local area, under the leadership of Major Chuck Kilbride, has supported the children in our programs with thousands of toys. We want to thank Toys for Tots for their years of support!
Bank of America takes the time to get involved in our programs. Recently, Bank of America employees spent their day giving back to one of EAC Network’s new programs, Fresh from the Garden.
Volunteers from BDO’s Melville office spent a day giving back to EAC Network programs. We greatly appreciate BDO’s commitment to our Long Island community!
For the month of July, EAC Network is partnering with Men’s Wearhouse once again to launch the 10th annual National Suit Drive, a month-long initiative that collects gently-used professional clothing for individuals transitioning back into the workforce.
Get excited, because Over the Edge is this Saturday, July 1, at the Tower at Nassau Community College! What’s Over the Edge, you ask? It’s an exciting fundraiser where our participants, or “Edgers,” rappel 13 stories down the Tower and raise money for our 70+ programs!
