Each month members can donate food for Todd Anglin Home's Weekend Backpack project. Backpacks are filled with the donated food to create meals which are provided to elementary school children who have been identified as homeless.
Over ten years ago members began designing and sewing one of a kind cuddle quilts to be given to women arriving at Human Option's temporary emergency shelter for victims of domestic violence. The quilts add a bright spot to each bed and remind the women that there are others supporting their escape from abuse.
Each December for the last 30 years the Ebell Club has sponsored an Angel Tree for St. Teresa's Orphanage and School in Ensenada, Mexico. In Oct. community members are given the opportunity to select the name of a child either living at the orphanage or attending the school. In early December volunteers transport the gifts and donated food to St. Teresa's for a party.
Shortly after the first phase of the Jeffrey Open Space Trail opened in 2006, the Ebell Club of Irvine partnered with the City of Irvine to provide botanical signs to identify the plants along the trail. As the length of the trail grew, the need for more signage increased. To date, 89 signs have been sponsored by either the club or community residents who donated the funds for a sign.
There's always an organization that can use more diapers.
The annual membership fee is $45. We also raise funds to support our philanthropic work by holding a monthly Dine-out Day at a local restaurant, participating in Kroger's Community Rewards program, Garage Sales, and recycling plastic bottles and aluminum cans. We are always looking for a new way to raise funds.
