Thank you to everyone who donated tents for Haiti. The tents are on their way now. In case you missed this great effort, the ERC joined with the American Alpine Club’s efforts to collect tents and shelter for Haitians left homeless by January’s earthquakes. The AAC identified the greatest immediate need as shelter and was requesting tent donations.
Imagine being in the midst of chaos in the aftermath of multiple devastating earthquakes.......

Our education programs are designed to touch the hearts of our valley's children. We hope you, too, will be inspired as you watch this slideshow.
Our Education Coordinator, Lisa Huttinger, describes the philosophy underlying our programs, but the images tell the real story. Enjoy!
