Each year, Carolina Family Services provides backpacks filled with supplies for children in need across the Upstate.
Many Upstate families are struggling to make ends meet due to the pandemic and other financial barriers, so contributing to this year’s effort has never been more important.
To ensure safety efforts, we will disinfect and quarantine all donated supplies at least 7 days prior to the event. We will also have a drive-thru and pick-up option to ensure social distancing.
Date and Time:
Saturday, August 6th at our office located at 17 Memorial Medical Drive, Greenville, SC 29605.
The event will be from 9:00 AM – 12:00 PM (while supplies last).
VIP Line:
Families who currently receive services with CFS can skip the line by asking their child’s therapist for a ” VIP Hall Pass”!
Donations/Sponsorship:
We are currently accepting donations to help support getting all of our Upstate children ready for the 2022-2023 school year.
