The Effingham County Chamber Foundation announced the Effingham County Job Opportunities for Business Success (ECJOBS) web-based platform in August. To launch this new initiative, the Chamber Foundation and EC-JOBS is kicking off a Founding Donor Campaign through October 31.

EC-JOBS was created specifically for Effingham County school districts, businesses, and Lake Land College. It creates a talent pipeline from school to work for high school students, community college students, parents, displaced workers, and incumbent workers. Chamber President and CEO Lucinda Hart said, "EC-JOBS asks that you or your company consider making a gift to join an exclusive group who are championing the objective to prepare students for the workforce. Donating $1,000+ to the EC-JOBS mission will help bolster continued excellence in our community. All proceeds will aid our local Effingham County residents and businesses by providing future workers the skills to be successful. Donate before October 31, 2021, to be recognized as an EC-JOB Founding Donor".
