EFAA

Did you know acts of kindness "have been shown to increase well-being, self-confidence, and a sense of meaning in life,” according to the American Psychological Association? When you get involved at EFAA, you change lives in your community — even your own efaa.org

Love in action is a beautiful thing! 💖 Every time you support EFAA’s mission—through your time, your donations, or your advocacy—you are changing lives and spreading compassion in powerful ways. Your kindness is the heart of everything we do! Thank you. Happy #ValentinesDay!

EFAA will be closed on Monday, February 16 in observance of Presidents Day. EFAA estará cerrada el Lunes 16 de Febrero por el Día de los Presidentes.

No one can do everything, but everyone can do something. 💪 There are many ways to help families in our community thrive. Consider volunteering, hosting a food drive, or donating funds to EFAA today. Learn more at efaa.org/volunteer or efaa.org/donate/.

A shining example of community in action! The 7th graders at Shining Mountain Waldorf School organized a school-wide food drive that amounted to more than 1,400 lbs of donations for our shelves. Thank you for your leadership and generosity!

Thank you to everyone who donated this holiday season. You made it a little brighter for families all across our community.

Every donation – big or small – matters, but we want to highlight the top 5 drives: 🥕Calvary Bible Church (4,400 lbs) 🍎 Boulder Elks Lodge #566 (4,000 lbs) 🥦 Southern Hills Middle School (3,600 lbs) 🥖 City of Boulder (2,074 lbs) 🧀 Primrose School at the Flatirons (2,016 lbs)

Wow! We just ran the numbers and it’s clear: Our community truly stepped up during the holiday season with kindness, compassion, and support. 100,000 lbs of food donated in just three months is remarkable!
