Thank You to Our Community Partners!
Earlier this week, the City of Escondido, alongside our amazing partner organizations, came together for a large-scale cleanup effort in the Escondido Creek/Harmony Grove area. Together, we removed debris and provided vital resources and support to individuals in need. You can learn more about that effort at: https://www.escondido.gov/CivicAlerts.aspx?AID=125
We couldn’t have done it without the dedication and hard work of the outstanding organizations below. If you are interested in supporting their efforts, visit their websites or reach out directly to learn about year-end drives and volunteer opportunities.
