About Us
Discover how one child’s question changed everything.
Our Story
“Do you have anything that fits me?”
When a little boy asked that question during an outreach, everything changed.
The Beginning
Eternally Equipped Project began with Bryan and Ashley Aycoth’s simple desire to use what God had placed in their hands to serve others.
What started with giving away their own children’s clothes quickly revealed a much deeper need. Children right here in our community were going without properly fitting shoes, clothing, and essentials.
Then one little boy asked a question we couldn't forget:
“Do you have anything that fits me?”
When we didn't, everything changed. That moment became the beginning of a mission to restore dignity, share hope, and remind children they are deeply loved by Jesus.
The Journey
What started with donated clothing and simple acts of service became a vision for something bigger. We saw the need, heard the stories, and knew God was calling us to build something different.
Used
We began by passing out our children’s hand-me-down clothes to families who needed them.
Then a little boy quietly asked us a question we’ll never forget:
“Do you have anything that fits me?”
We didn’t. That moment changed everything.
New
That one question changed how we saw the need. We began providing brand-new jackets so children could experience the joy of receiving something made just for them.
More
Brand-new jackets grew into shoes, shirts, bottoms, socks, and other essentials hand-delivered to even more children.
Choice
We realized it wasn’t only about what children received. They deserved the dignity and joy of choosing what they loved for themselves.
The Mobile Idea
Then we saw a big red American Red Cross bus parked in a Walmart shopping center, and a new possibility became clear.
“What if we could bring the entire shopping experience directly to children?”
Hope on Wheels
That vision became our 28-foot Mobile Boutique—a traveling shopping experience bringing brand-new essentials, dignity, hope, and the love of Jesus directly to children across Jacksonville.

What began with hand-me-down clothes became a mobile shopping experience built to restore dignity and bring hope.
Restoring Dignity. Sharing the Gospel. Changing Lives.
Hope on Wheels
We quickly realized children didn’t simply need more things. They needed an experience that restored dignity and gave them the freedom to choose.
So we built something different.
Today, our 28-foot Mobile Boutique travels directly into under-resourced communities, bringing a brand-new shopping experience directly to children who need it most.
They choose what they love and leave knowing they are seen, valued, and deeply loved.
The Experience Today
Children don't stand in a line and receive whatever is handed to them. They enter a boutique created just for them, pick up a shopping basket, and choose brand-new clothes and shoes they actually love.
We bring the Mobile Boutique directly to the children.
Kids choose brand-new clothes and shoes with dignity and joy.
Brand-new shoes, clothes, socks, and Gospel resources.
Seen. Valued. Loved.
From Idea to Impact
Behind every number is a child who walked away with confidence, dignity, and a reminder that they truly matter.
Why We Do It
“Our goal isn’t simply to give children new things. It’s to create a moment where a child feels seen, valued, confident, and deeply loved by Jesus.”
— Bryan & Ashley Aycoth, Co-Founders
The Need
For many children in our own community, brand-new shoes and clothes are not a given.
The need is great.
The opportunity is greater.
