Humans for Humanity
In January 2008 ECC became a DBA of Eugene, Oregon's non-profit organization Humans for Humanity, which was created in 2006 and in the process of acquiring its 501(c)3 and tax-deductible
status. Created and inspired by a community service project in El Salvador, Humans for Humanity is dedicated to providing humanitarian relief as well
as supporting sustainable developments in areas facing poverty, hunger, poor water sanitation, lack of educational opportunities, and limited access to
medical care. Humans for Humanity is working to raise funds and support ECC as its first sustainable educational development project.

Green Wave
ECC began collaborating with the Los Angeles-based non-profit organization in January 2009. Green Wave is an educational non-profit dedicated to establishing precedents for environmental and social change by inspiring
philanthropic projects that give back to communities.
Green Wave took an interest in ECC and has been inspiring in our progress toward environmental education and community development. Green Wave founder, Janine Johnson, introduced ECC to The EDGE Foundation and, with proceeds from the Green Heart Eco-Yoga Day Fundraiser in February 2009, financed The EDGE Curriculum to be utilized in ECC's classes in the 2010 school year. Green Wave has also worked to raise money for the Golfo Dulce's Anti-Tuna Farm Campaign.
Green Wave Mission
To inspire waves of change by creating living examples focused on living consciously, peacefully, and harmoniously with the environment and with each
other for the well being of our planet.
