#30DaysofDreams We're celebrating our 30th anniversary this month and we want you to dream with us. What would SC look like if there was no poverty? "A minimum wage that allows people to pay their rent." –SCFSC event attendee #SCFSC30 #DreamWithUs #NoMorePoverty

This year, we joyfully honor another remarkable milestone — the 175th Anniversary of the Sisters of Charity of St. Augustine. Their vision and generosity laid the foundation for our work, and we give thanks for the ways their love continues to ripple outward.

Throwing it back to a soul-filling gathering last month at the Together SC Nonprofit Summit in Greenville! When the road ahead feels long, moments like this remind us where our strength comes from. It’s humbling to be part of this community ❤️

"God desires peace for every nation: a peace that is not merely an absence of conflict, but one that is an expression of justice and dignity." Pope Leo stressed this at the Martyrs’ Monument in Algiers, Algeria on the first day of his Apostolic Journey to the African continent.
