About Episcopal Charities of Southeast Florida Episcopal Charities of Southeast Florida (ECSEFL) is the philanthropic arm of the Episcopal Diocese of Southeast Florida. Founded in 1998, we partner with congregations across the diocese to fund outreach ministries serving people in need, regardless of religious affiliation. Our work is rooted in the call of Matthew 25: to see and serve Christ in every person who is hungry, unhoused, or vulnerable. In the current two-year grant cycle, ECSEFL supports 38 outreach programs across 26 congregations with over $350,000 in annual funding. Programs address food insecurity, homelessness, hygiene, senior services, children, women, and family needs, immigration assistance, and health promotion.
