Thanksgiving Food Distribution with Park Circle Cares

Volunteer to distribute food with Park Circle Cares. SHL will be supporting Park Circle Cares’ Thanksgiving food distribution. This is one of their biggest efforts of the year, and they have reached out to ask if any of our community could come out to help.

Park Circle Cares, is our 2024 Q4 Charity of the Quarter. So far we have raised $110. You can support their work by donating here, but they also need volunteers to help distribute food. They are a non-faith based, non-profit organization created in 2016 to assist people in the lowcountry who struggle with food insecurity. Park Circle Cares is a member agency with the Lowcountry Food Bank, and distributes 120-150 thousand pounds of food each year. What makes them unique among the many organizations working on the widespread problem of food insecurity in our community is that they only distribute healthy and nutritious foods, 75% of which is produce. Healthy dry goods and proteins make up the remainder.

Park Circle Cares is operated by an all-volunteer working board, and an enthusiastic group of volunteers who set up a farmers’ market style distribution at North Charleston High School on the third Saturday of each month.

Afterwards, we are invited to join the Park Circle Cares volunteers at Southern Roots on Montague for a bite to eat and drink.
