ECHO International Scholarship Fund
The Echo International Scholarship Fund (EISF) was created in honor of Shauna Banet, who journeyed from her home in Ireland to attend ECHO in the summer of 2016. Only a few weeks after returning home, she tragically died at the age of 17. We recognize the dignity of her life and want to allow her legacy to benefit others through this scholarship fund. Shauna, along with two others, fundraised for over a year in order to be able to attend ECHO. Their determination and openness to receive was an inspiration to all at the camp.
The EISF exists to help international participants be able to attend an experience of ECHO and to receive the teaching of the Theology of the Body, which is not offered to many of them in their respective countries.

Vocational Witness Fund
Creating a vocational culture is a hallmark of the ECHO experience. The Church is full of men and women who have embraced what St. John Paul II calls the “spousal meaning of the body” through their current state in life, seeking to offer themselves as a gift to Christ, their families, and within their friendships. At every ECHO, we try to have these joyful priests, consecrated men and women, witnesses of marriage and family life, single men and women who recognize Christ’s call to be a gift and taste the joy that comes through that gift. Not only are these men and women a gift to the ECHO community, but we have received numerous testimonies of how ECHO has transformed how they see, live, and embrace their own calling.
There are times when covering the cost of registration is difficult. Will you help us continue to share these vibrant and joyful witnesses with the teens and young adults that attend our retreats?
