Resource Closet

The resource closet was created to support Foster Parents, Kinship families and Independent Living youth across the state of South Carolina. Through generous donations from the community, the resource closet is stocked with items that these families and youth need as well as items to help make the transition easier.

If you are interested in donating to the resource closet, or if you or someone you know could benefit from the items in the closet – please reach out to Kendra Faile, at k.faile@epworthsc.org or 803-832-2285.
