WE ARE ONE El Cajon is a City-sponsored, employee engagement, community service group. The mission of WE ARE ONE is to provide employees with opportunities to build relationships with employees they would not otherwise interact with in their regular workday while engaging in service projects that positively impact the El Cajon community. Past projects have included building a dog park at Hillside Park, various street clean-ups, and a back-to-school supply drive that collected approximately $4,000 in cash and supplies for underserved elementary schools. This past year the group completed a beautification project at ECTLC by adding a fresh coat of paint to their children’s play area, with Police and Fire providing stuffed animals to the child residents.

Engaging with our community reenergizes employees and provides a sense of pride and purpose. An engaged employee is less sick, less stressed, and more productive.

So now that you know who we are, how can we help? We are looking for service opportunities for 2023! If you know of an opportunity within the City of El Cajon, please get in touch with us at WeAreOne@elcajon.gov.
