Park Circle Cares organized a successful free food giveaway at North Charleston High School, distributing 8,000 pounds of produce and 1,000 pounds of meat to about 175 families facing food insecurity during the holidays.
Event Details
The event occurred on a Saturday morning, with families lining up around the school despite challenging weather. Organizers noted higher attendance over the holidays, highlighting community need.
How It Works
Participants first receive protein items, then select as much produce as they need in a farmers’ market-style setup. This approach allows sharing with neighbors, extending the nonprofit’s impact.
Schedule and Location
Distributions happen monthly on the third Saturday at 1087 West Montague Avenue, starting around 7:45-8 a.m. Volunteers handle setup and immediate distribution.
Ways to Help
As a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, Park Circle Cares welcomes year-round monetary donations and extra volunteers, especially during holidays. Visit their website for involvement details.
