At Leticia’s First Class Cleaning Inc., service does not stop at the spaces we care for every day.
It extends into the community we are part of.
Throughout the past year, our team has had the privilege of serving alongside ECHO Paso Robles, not only by volunteering our time, but also by supporting their mission in practical ways — including contributing meals that help sustain their programs and the people they serve.
We share this not to highlight ourselves, but to honor a community effort that is bigger than any single contribution.
A Collective Impact That Truly Matters
In 2025, volunteers at ECHO Paso Robles dedicated 7,724.5 hours of service, surpassing the previous year and helping more than 385 families and individuals move toward stable housing.
Those hours were lived moments:
Preparing and sharing meals
Supporting daily operations like showers, laundry, and organization
Participating in fundraisers and community events
Offering presence, kindness, and consistency
Each action — whether large or small — helped ECHO continue providing dignity, stability, and hope through its community programs and services.
More Than Support — Shared Humanity
What stands out most is not the scale of the work, but the spirit behind it.
Volunteers create moments of connection: laughter during dinner service, teamwork at fundraising events, and encouragement offered during difficult days. Many clients have shared how a volunteer’s patience or simple kindness made them feel seen and valued.
These moments remind us that service is not only about meeting needs — it is about restoring trust and humanity.
Relationships That Carry Forward
Many volunteers, including members of our own team, have been part of ECHO for years. Through that consistency, meaningful relationships form. Clients return to share milestones: a new job, a home secured, a fresh start.
For some individuals, volunteers are among the few steady, caring presences in their lives. That continuity matters deeply.
Gratitude for a Community That Serves Together
We are grateful to be part of the ECHO volunteer community and thankful for the opportunity to contribute — through time, service, and shared responsibility.
As we look ahead, we do so with respect for every volunteer, every staff member, and every organization that chooses to show up when it matters.
“Service is not a title.It is a commitment lived day by day.“
