This organization does not receive Government funding - so depends on public donations to provide services to others. We know that our donations are needed/appreciated and use to the fullest to benefit others.

ECCRC started out as a 501-C non-profit community resource center in the fall of 2003. Since then, it has moved its headquarters to Dexter, KS. A huge part of ECCRC is their Lighthouse Library project, in part a living tribute to a local teen who was killed in an auto accident & as a tribute to the town. The library is a needed service for the town as the nearest library is about 20 miles in one direction and 30 in the other direcgtion. Two sustaining projects - the Grouse Valley Lodge (a rental cabin) and The Treasure Chest (a thrift store) are the sustaining projecgts that will preven any financial burden to the town folks for keeping the library open. The hope is for these two projects to raise the funds to pay the utilities on the library. A local author has also donated proceeds from two books in support of the library. Nearly 200 people have volunteered to make the Lighthouse Library project a reality. Located at 104 S. Main in Dexter, KS. In years past - 100 Thanksgiving food boxes were donated by ECCRC with the help of local volunteers. ECCRC receives no Government funding & relies on public donations.
