About

In the Spring of 2021, members of Escondido, CA based Emmanuel Faith Community Church were eager to reengage with their community after the turmoil of the Covid-19 pandemic. Groups organized around local partners such as Interfaith, the City of Escondido, and the Escondido Union School District, to serve the community through projects such as cleaning local parks, caring for local teachers, and collecting laundry supplies, hygiene kits, and food for families in need. These acts of neighborly love, contagious generosity, and care for the place we call home, became the foundation for Love Esco. 

After four years of projects, we can proudly say we have mobilized 3,000+ volunteers, accumulated 10,000 hours of service, and completed 100+ projects.

While Love Esco originated from a local Escondido church, we continue to connect with local businesses, nonprofits, organizations, and other community members to “spread love and kindness to every corner of Escondido.”
