ECHO
The (ECHO) Emergency Care Help Organization provides immediate relief in
the forms of food, clothing and household items to those residents of
the greater Brandon area that have experienced a recent emergency. Since
its inception in 1987, ECHO has assisted over 109,000 individuals, over
half of whom were children, with the basic life necessities.
WOMEN'S RESOURCE CENTER
The Women’s Resource Center (WRC) is a not-for-profit organization. The
initial group of women understood the struggle with addiction, abusive
relationship, divorce, and trauma. They organized to reach out to other
women. The WRC gives hope, support, knowledge of resources and
connections that had worked for them. In 2008 they served more than 3000
people. Today WRC is helping 100 families a month and that number is
growing.
FALLEN HEROES
Curtis/Kocab 3rd Annual Memorial Benefit Game "Fallen Heroes" will
benefit the families of Fallen Officers in the Tampa Bay area.
WFC was dismayed to lose a fellow paintball player, Tampa Police
Department Officer Jeff Kocab in 2010, as well as Officer David Curtis
to senseless violence as they served our community. This game is just a
small way to continue to honor a great guy, a great teammate and a great
police officer.
