Since 1964, Echo House has provided services to
families in Baltimore City in sensitive and caring ways. The Board
of Directors, staff and volunteers join forces with schools,
churches, medical and social service providers, civic groups,
businesses, and government to offer a wide array of services to
low-income citizens in this community.
Over the past five years, our services have doubled in size and we
are in the process of building a new building. We need your help.
The new building will cost $3 million. The State of Maryland is
planning to give us a total of $1.7 million and the City of
Baltimore, Homeless Services Department may give us up to $750,000
over the next two years. Please help us to continue to expand the
services that we are providing this community.
Echo House welcomes contributions of cash and food. Echo House also
encourages gifts of stocks and mutual funds. This kind of gift
allows the donor to receive a charitable deduction for the full,
fair-market value of the gift without being subject to a capital
gains tax on the appreciation. All gifts to Echo House are tax
deductible as allowed by federal and state law. Echo House is
a United Way Agency, Member No. 48
