In 1984, Esther Taggart and Irene Boone recognized a need for assistance for Ellis County residents.  They responded by creating the Community Assistance Center, which offers disadvantaged residents of Ellis County food, clothing, furniture, and miscellaneous items to aid them during their time of crisis. 

 This year, we celebrate 40 years of service to the community, and the philosophy remains strong and true.
