EBC (Eastside Baby Corner)

EBC-Eastside Baby Corner has been helping kids reach their full potential tomorrow by meeting basic needs today for 30 years. EBC works to reduce community, income and society inequities by providing concrete supports for a child's safe, healthy, physical, cognitive and emotional development. We do this by delivering essential, tangible items to children ages 0-12 living in poverty or crisis quickly and effectively through a 54 partner network of organizations. EBC distributes goods through health and human service organizations, early learning centers, food banks and school districts to quickly and effectively get children what they need so they can learn, play and thrive. We envision a world where all children are healthy, happy and prepared to build their own futures.  EBC - Eastside Baby Corner provided more than 110,000 health, safety and care goods for 9,132 kids in the Central Puget Sound region in 2019.

About Eastside Baby Corner (EBC): EBC helps kids thrive by providing basic necessities for children so that EBC’s partners – schools, human service agencies, food banks, hospitals - can help families become stable, safe, housed, fed and employed.  Relying on volunteers, EBC takes in donations of children’s clothing and goods from the community and wisely purchases most needed essential supplies for children that we guarantee to provide, including baby food, formula, car seats, pack n’ plays and diapers.  The immediate, tangible assistance kids and families receive through EBC provides the tools caregivers need to care for their family, and the essentials kids need to grow up healthy.  EBC began 2020 with 54 active agency partners, and through this network of agency partners, more than 1,500 children each month get what they need, when they need it.  Because of EBC, children, ages birth through 12 are warm, safe and secure.  EBC depends on more than 100 volunteers each week, contributing an average of nearly 3000 hours each month. Eastside Baby Corner is both non-sectarian and non-partisan, committed to providing resources to all children in need, from birth to age twelve, regardless of their religious, ethnic or other affiliations.
