Greenwood Community Care Center

Many of us have never faced the pressure of not knowing where we will lay our head each night or when or what our next meal will be.  The mere conveniences of selecting what to wear in the morning is often taken for granted because we have so many options from which to choose. Many of us have said, “I have nothing to wear!”  Can you really imagine that being a true statement?  Unfortunately, these are real concerns that countless families and individuals face right in our own backyard. Emotional issues that arise from the stress of such financial hardships have no release other than back into the family dynamic which makes things even more stressful.  A vicious cycle has begun with no escape…until now.

The Greenwood Community Care Center (GCCC) is a facility that will offer a food pantry, clothing closet and counseling services in a way that lets our community friends in need know that they are loved and valued.  Imagine a food pantry that looks more like a small grocery store; a clothing closet that has been transformed into a small boutique and counseling that takes place in a private, comfortable and inviting environment.  We want to send a message to our community that when you need help, we are here for you.  We want our patrons to feel special because they are a part of our community family, and that is the positive atmosphere we want to create.
