annual fundraisers to support our mission. We auction donated items in support of our Homeless & Hunger Outreach Mission.

There is a direct linkage between poverty and food insecurity. Galatians 6:2 aims to not only address the symptoms but the root causes of food insecurity. We have programs that combat food insecurity and homelessness through job training and job creation, teaching skills to people who face high barriers to employment. Our Foundation aims to assist the homeless in laying solid foundations for personal success. We achieve this goal through encouraging self-sufficiency, removing barriers to services and education, and offering consolidated resource access. Our Nonprofit has six programs aimed at combatting and dealing with homelessness and food insecurity:

1.       Mobile Homeless Outreach - We go out into the community identifying homeless individuals and providing them with care bags.  We also identify specific needs our citizens have and attempt to align them with the appropriate resources.

2.       Food Insecurity - Our food insecurity program allows us to assist low-income and underserved individual and families in need of food by providing grocery store vouchers and/or gift cards to assist with grocery purchases. Through our various partners we are also able to provide nonperishables, fresh produce and hot meals.

3.       Veteran to Veteran assistance - Our Veteran to Veteran Assistance Program is a special project to honor our fellow Veterans. We provide furniture items and household goods to Veterans transitioning out of homelessness into independent living.

4.       Benefit assistance – We are a SC thrive partner and use Thrive Hub to complete applications for resources you may need. Our benefits screenings help you find resources for which you may be eligible.

5.       Bridging the Gap Program - Our Bridging the Gap Programs provides our clients and low income members of the community with access to computers, internet services, job training, mentorship and a variety of other services to give them access to a better future.

6.       The Blessing Store - Our Thrift Store offers new and used merchandise to the public. All funds are used to support our community food .
