Navidad En El Barrio
IECC is partnering with Navidad En El Barrio (NEEB), a nonprofit agency that seeks food donations from major food companies to create food baskets for the holidays. For over a decade IECC has partnered with NEEB to assemble baskets of food containing fresh produce and nonperishable goods for families in need during the holiday season. For over 20 years and more than a MILLION dollars a year worth of food NEEB has helped make Christmas a little brighter for needy families.
Donate and Volunteer
IECC is asking for your help in supporting our Holiday Food Drive. Now, more than ever, communities in the Inland Empire are facing record breaking unemployment and food insecurity as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. Many members of our community, largely people of color and minoritized individuals, have found themselves unable to support their families during these difficult times.
Please use the form to the right to donate to the IECC Holiday Food Drive. Every $5 we receive will help to create a basket for a family in need. Donate today! A $20 donation can provide a holiday basket for up to 4 families in our community!

Holiday Food Drive Impact
Our agencies share the mission of making an impact in the communities we serve through collaboration. Therefore, every year in December, the Inland Empire Community Collaborative (IECC) hosts the annual Holiday Food Drive. In partnership with over 80 existing nonprofit community organizations, IECC leverages the capacity of this nonprofit coalition to collect food and monetary donations to support at-risk children and families in the Inland Empire.
