Charitable Outlook: EAI Donates to Friends of the Children & Community Vision

Each holiday season, Elliott Associates focuses on one, or multiple, charitable organizations to donate to in the spirit of giving back.

This year, EAI chose to foster our ongoing relationship with Friends of Children, a mentorship program for at-risk-youth, by adopting two separate Portland families in need. Acorn employees gathered toys, clothing, activities and monetary donations to ensure these families would not have to go without at Christmas.

Additionally, EAI raised money for Community Vision, the largest non-profit organization providing individualized housing, supported living, employment and homeownership services to people with disabilities and their families in Oregon. Employees purchased raffle tickets for a chance to win trips to either Timberline Lodge or the Stephanie Inn at Cannon Beach. Donations from the internal raffle, matched personally by the Elliotts, amounted to a total charitable contribution of nearly $1,400.00.

We acorns are so grateful to be able to share our good fortune with others!
