Lowcountry Orphan Relief is a local non-profit that provides support services and aid to meet the

needs of Lowcountry children identified as at-risk or suffering from abandonment, abuse or neglect. Our Founder, Lynn Young witnessed foster children being removed from their families often taken in the middle of the night or while at school and most were unable to get their belongings to bring with them. The court system can take up to two weeks to process these children; and during that time, the children have to make do with whatever clothing and personal items they had when they left their homes. In many cases, Lynn saw children staying in the same clothing often up to one week. Lowcountry Orphan Relief serves more than 300 organizations in Charleston, Berkeley, and Dorchester counties, including the Department of Social Services, all local group foster homes, foster parents, local schools, and more. For each child, we are able to provide 2 weeks of new and like new clothing, pajamas, shoes, toiletries, school supplies and uniforms, as well as coats, books, stuffed animals, and new socks and underwear. We have a Distribution Center in North Charleston that fills Care Kits for children within 48 hours. Our daily average is 15-20 Care Kits per day, and we distribute an average of about about 4,000+ Care Kits per year.

Sometimes it starts with cleaning out a closet, filling a few bags and deciding to pass those items along. 💙 That simple choice can put clothing, shoes and comfort items into the hands of children who need them.

We are so thankful for the families who choose to give together and show the next generation what generosity looks like.

This National Nonprofit Day, we celebrate every person who chooses to help. One donation, one volunteer shift or one act of kindness can bring hope to a child when they need it most.

🌟This Saturday Spotlight is for ALL of you 🌟 To every individual, family, group, school, church, and business that donated, hosted a collection drive, shared our posts, or helped spread the word during our Back to School Drive, thank you!

Because so many people in our community stepped up, we are able to send children across the Lowcountry into the school year with backpacks and the supplies they need to feel prepared and confident.

We are incredibly grateful for everyone who helped make this year’s Back to School Drive possible. We truly could not do it without you! 💙
