Every year we see families in a financial crisis who have been placed in a bad situation despite their best efforts to overcome obstacles. Typical types of assistance include:
- Prevention of evictions/foreclosures
- Preventing loss of utility services (electric/gas/water)
- Providing heating assistance in the winter
- Providing food
- Providing clothing (at no cost)
- Covering the costs of life-sustaining medications
- Assistance with obtaining identification papers to start work or find social services assistance (birth certificate, social security card, and picture i.d.)
- Traveler's Aid for Spartanburg County (stranded travelers)
